Topic: Dodge D Series


In the News (Wed 23 Dec 09)

  
  Dodge D Series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The D Series used the familiar Chrysler Slant 6 engine in 170 in³, 198 in³ and 225 in³ displacements as the base models, depending on the year.
A redesign of the D Series for 1972 introduced a more rounded look (similar to the 1973 to 1987 GM C/K series), but included features such as an independent front suspension and pocketed taillights (the distinctive reverse on top lights were recessed to 1/4 in to avoid damage in loading docks and confined spaces).
Dodge also saw a need in the market for a "Club Cab" pickup and released an extended cab version of the D Series with extra space behind the front seat while still having two doors on the cab - not to be confused with the much larger "Crew Cab" that had four doors.

No changes to the D series trucks were made until 1965, when a major resylting brought a new grille and headlights, along with tougher new double-wall boxes that included a full-width tailgate.
The new LA series 273 V8, lighter yet as powerful as the old A-series 318, was optional in 1965, as well.
Dodge, caught up in Chrysler's economic crisis, also leaned on Mitsubishi for a compact pickup, selling the D50 as a Dodge even though it was designed and built entirely by the Japanese auto firm.

While the B series were very popular, the C series ushered in a new era of more powerful trucks, with advanced (optional) PowerDome V8 engines pushing out 145 horsepower (many times the original 35!) and 215 lb-ft of torque...at low rpm.
Along with the new name, Dodge began to use the industry-standard rating system, calling its half-ton pickups the D100 (today, Ford uses that numbering system, while GM and Dodge have inflated their numbers to 1500, 2500, and 3500).
Dodge management only authorized 50 trucks could be built with the 426 Street Wedge High Performance Package — this is according to Bruce Thomas of the Walter P. Chrysler Museum and former Dodge truck engineer.

These were the last 4-cylinder Dodges built in North America until the introduction of the Omni in late 1977.

Two types exist for `61-`68 Dodge Pickups, one is for the white steering wheel with chrome horn ring while the other is for the plain jane steeering wheel and column with a horn button in the center.
For `69-`71, I am guessing that the turn signal cam is the same as the simple horn button type of cam just because Dodge liked to keep many things the same over the eleven year run of these trucks.
