New Hawk HP+ pads, turned rotors, new wheels tires and lugnuts. Now it drives much better.
Got burned on putting Konis Iris this morning, SWMBOs car got a weird rotating noise last night on her way home. Ended up being a failing axle.
I added another charging cable from behind the headunit since I always need 2 in the black RT.
Also doing oil change and full grease today.

I thought all the Dodge Shadows returned to earth 10 years ago.
It was the cheap transportation of choice when I was in high school then they all seemed to go extinct overnight.
That one even appears to have it's clear coat intact. Needs more louvers.

After having to get rid of the other halfs over some title issues, I told her I would get her another....
37k on the clock, 1 owner. $380 out the door.
Made a new cable that goes between the battery and fuse box since the one one on the RTVberry is butchered.
The game of wheel bearings is over in the front, like 1k later the PS one started making noise... This one did not go as well.
I ordered the same bearing as the other side, first one was similar to a bearing for like a lawn mower deck, returned it and ordered another. The second bearing was the same inner and outer diameter as the old one, pressed old one out and new one in..... Went to press in the hub, it bottomed out on knuckle. Quick investigation showed that the bearing was a 1/8in shorter than the old, pressed it back out and it was not the correct part number as the box said.... One more trip to another part store, and we got the correct bearing and we are on our way.
I normally am super ocd about checking part numbers, but I assumed in a sealed National box it would be the correct one....Now to start checking new boxes.
Went to the junkyard this weekend, and did easter things, going back thursday to strip this guy.
Started to install my Konis this morning, and with my luck, had to run on a service call, and only got the rears done.
RTVberry got its misfire back, checked plugs and wires any both tested/looked good. Im still lerry its a fuel issue.
This car really does not like running, YOU WILL RUN DAMMIT.
The tab for the crank sensor broke off and sensor fell out. Made a hold down with a soda can off the side of the road. Made it home, new sensor going in tonight.
Had the janky power washer out so decided to foam cannon the RTVberry. Cleaned up pretty good in all honesty.
Drove both cars quite a bit this weekend. I am quite happy how well both of them drive.
The Cruse Control now works. When I got the car all the vacuum lines where in a box when I got it. I got them all back to stock locations and got everything working except the dome light. Car is getting better and better. Also put the Mopar Ecu back in.

Unsure, the test drive after the seafoam it broke the crank angle sensor.
Konis are on, rides a little stiffer, was putting in lower camber bolt and it snapped, new set ordered, need to tape measure align it when they come in.

Do you have a link or brand/part# for that battery terminal? How do they attach?
