I was trying to do the oil pan a few years ago bc it was leaking bad but the cross member is in the way That was before it started halting at traffic lights after long drives. Now it doe it after only short driving. It also had a lot of valve ticking. Probably it would've been wise to adjust the valves but the mechanic said just use thicker oil. What a moron. I feel horrible bc it's a beautiful car. The mechanic also put the oil pressure sensor in with Teflon tape so to put a manual gauge on it you have to be Hercules to get the sensor out. No shop is willing to put in an oil pump. I realize I might have to do the timing belt to do that but I was prepared to pay. The sad thing is it runs fine other than that.

Just a trick of the trade...... IF you ever buy a 3rd gen (71-74) Charger/Roadrunner and it needs a new back bumper get a early (74-80) D-150 front bumper, They are the exact same bumper, literally.... same part number.
