The problem with spacers, besides the need for longer wheel studs, is going from hub-centric to lug-centric. Hub-centric is preferred: the center hole on the wheel fits snugly over the circle on the wheel hub. If your wheel center hole is too big, or doesn't make contact due to spacers, the wheel m...

i think you are missunderstanding.

I never had a 26mm front bar. I have a 24mm.

SE/SXT 22mm, srt/and PT Turbo (non-convertable) 24mm, and PT cruiser Convertible 26mm.

I have the PT turbo, non drop top, sway bar. I guess i could just say SRT, but a PT is acutally what it came off of.

i wondered who would notice it was a 2 door. I chopped it, photochopped it.

I thought it was pretty sick, but i didnt think anyone would notice.

The truck is a 72, and very clean. I paid 1500 for it.

Yeah, just a ground and a 12v ignition source... At the radio there should be a red/white wire, that should be a 12v ignition source. Or you could use the dark blue wire that is attached to the ignition switch harness. Try using a test light or voltmeter to check these. And of course a ground should...

Yeah, you can program them on your own. But you have to already have one that is programed.

So basically you have to go pay the dealership.


Oh, and anyone with keyless entry can look at the part number on the back of the remote. I dont have it, so i dont know it

changing the numbers on the speedo means it wont read correct.

You would have to alter it somehow to read the right speed... or get an r/t cluster

drop spindles would prolly be nice for bagged people.

Good and low with bags full, slammed with bags empty.

But, it would be a real hassle to build those. They would have to be cast.
