To-do List

MoparManiac · Mar 10, 2014

Might as well keep the tradition going of myself starting this thread :laugh:

- Swap out oil pan dipstick for locking one
- Spend some time tuning the motor (ideally I'd love to get on the dyno)
- Swap out iron heads for aluminum heads (pending my uncles time)
- Brace air bumps back to frame
- Fix leaky tires
- Get spare leaf springs
- Fix rear diff breather

Ideal list:
- Fix everything. Rusty floors and rockers, cracked frame, open engine up and find out how bad I hurt it hydrolocking it, new tires since they're dry rotted and go flat in a few weeks, skidplate for winch connections, fix DW, blah blah blah.

Probable list:
- fill tires back up
- throw spare engine and hoist in bed
- throw beer, hammock, food, clothes in bed
- throw some more spare parts in bed
- drive down

Stuff I will probably do:
-Sector shaft brace/winch skid
-Double sheer drag link ends
-Change oil
-Grease stuff and tighten bolts
-Pull front cover to check Locrite and change fluid
-Finish building and swap in new driveshafts, current ones become spares
-Find a pair of spare 14b shafts and long side 60 shaft

Stuff I probably won't do:
-Get gauges working
-Get AW4 shifter working
-Fix tires instead of just filling them every trip

Tow rig stuff:
-Bump timing
-Slightly bigger injectors
-Fix dragging DS rear brake

On my 68 Charger...
Order:
-New AM gauge cluster with wiring
-PG shifter
-Shifter
-Various misc crap
Install:
