Sniper

I think I would disagree on the unnecessary part and they can be hidden if need be, A simple voltage drop test will tell you the state of the circuit feeding the headlights.

Over kill on amperage is ok when talking about relays. I run 30A ones even though I have LED headlights, GE Nighthawks. Not sure what headlights you are running, but current draw specs should be available whatever they are, just remember to double that number because you have two headlights. The stock head lamps for a 48 Plymouth draw 8.6A on high, that is 17.2A for the pair. If you have converted to 12V then it is 5A per bulb, 10A total. Do not forget to to protect the circuit with a fuse or fusible link, maybe a self resetting circuit breaker.

If you remove the aligning pin from the hubs, any mopar steelie with the 4.5" bolt pattern will fit up.

I think the point I was trying to make to you was that posting outdated part numbers that don't cross is less than no help. I was trying to get you to find that part and show me up, lol. I did try to find that part number, btw, all that came up is 1054, which is just the bearing itself. While I agree that people ought to take more of hand in finding their own parts before they ask here we must remember the flip side of that coin, if someone in the future is looking for that part and the info is posted here they could, theoretically, find it with out asking, assuming they look, lol. Damned if you do damned if you don't. The Mopar PN for the assembly is 862859, which I find in a few places. https://www.ebay.com/itm/273604294434

Not seeing either 2P-1054 or 671 915 listed in that Ebay link. But according to that Ebay ad it's the same release bearing as the on on my A833, Not sure about that. So I did a search on pn 614036, which is what the Ebay as says the PN is. Advanced Auto, Autozone and O'Reilly's list it, but all say does not fit a 54 Savoy

Black and satin is too rich. Black and glossy is oil burning. Dude, that was three and a half years ago. Past Sniper is kicking Now Sniper's butt. Future Sniper is in trouble, lol.

That damn Sniper, he's like Savoir Faire, he's every where. lol, I do not remember that part.

Rubber is too flexible, it'll warp.

Unfortunately, Autolite points and especially condensors, are no longer new and haven't been for decades. You may be setting yourself up for disaster.

.Got a useful source?

Mopar part number 671 915, 38-54 (at least, my book stops in 54) all Plymouth. https://www.ebay.com/itm/292959952456 I'd replace both

That would be because they used water and a no pressure cooling system, be like boiling a pot of water on the stove, at 212 (altitude depending) it starts to turn to steam. More modern engines, with a pressure cap, raise that temperature.

I cut a bit of fuel hose to slide over the stems and prevent the hubcap from cutting my stem. You can still get the right stems, look for a tractor place or an old school tire shop. MIlton Industries makes them, NAPA NTH 90282

Anytime

Not sure if a coil spring compressor will be useful here, I doubt it. Here's the FSM instructions

He's got carb issues, fix that first then see where you are.

No, but you'll have an issue with the aligning pin. I have test fitted later Mopar Steelies, Cop Car rims to be exact, on my 51, other than the pin the fit fine. Currently I am running 2005-2011 Charger/300/Magnum/Challenger steelies in the back with 255/50R17 tires, just about perfect, for the back.

That end of the tie rod assembly barely moves vertically, it is constrained by the pitman arm. Pull the coil springs and you can cycle the suspension all you need to sort it out. But I think you are ok.

On my 51 there is nothing to hook onto. The tabs are all there is. I looked in the parts manual to see what I could see, I see nothing useful, lol.

I don't think a hone will fix that. You seem to have a real crusty looking ridge at about 8 o'clock in #6. Unless you can scrape that off I think it would mess up any hone job you tried.

You can get the paper filters easily, GF124 is the part number. You can even get a bronze version of the filter. The filter housing, $30 free shipping https://tinyurl.com/29ps2b4x

Absolutely not.
