Ramcharger, Trailduster & Power Wagon Grrrr!! Tough Trucks! The Dodge Ramcharger and Plymouth Trailduster were full size SUV's that had good looks and brute strength. The Dodge Power Wagon was comparable to them in toughness, but came in pickup truck form only.

"When the truck is in natural and the clutch in-gauged both in gear and in neutral and it still had vibration would this eliminate the clutch plate ?"


If the disc is complete and no twist evident I would think it would be fine. The clutch cover/pressure plate would be more suspect as it rotates with the crank all the time.


I did find another old post flywheel picture on the net. A lot more knowledge on this site also.


Balancing looks different for sure........

Might be worth having the flywheel checked for neutral balance.

I was told there are 2 diferent cranks for the 318. 1 internal balance and 1 external balance. 1 cast and 1 forged.
If I'm wrong please tell me. I mostly have Fords untill I bought my 75 W300.

You could look for a 360 also if your not opposed to more cubic inches.
