You wouldn t believe how hard it is to find a vacuum.tree. Ace or anyone else DOESN'T have any thing close that will work. Lol
BTW, that tree was $67 with shipping. Yeah, I could of bought some old crusty rusty junk from EBay for a little less.....

I'm almost positive I had one in my stash I gave to Jeff.
Thanks.
The brass vacuum tree I have coming will probably last longer than me.

Jeez!!!
Mopar has a real problem with anything made out of plastic during the Formal years!

Then again....no one designs a plastic car part to last 40+ years!

Why. What nasty little surprise did the NYB give you now?
I barely touched one of the hoses on the factory vacuum tree on the back of the intake manifold and the port literally fell off the tree.
That's why I've been looking for a decent replacement for days and finally found one.

I seem to remember one... with the combination of stashes... there may be several. I suppose I'll need to catalog it better someday.

Catalog it right in the same drawer as the infamous 1978 wiper cam.....made out of the same inferior plastic. I swear I barely touched my vacuum tree and the 1/8" port literally fell off the vacuum tree. This is another OEM/NOS part I am done with forever. I'll spend the extra money once and have a bulletproof brass vacuum tree.
Rant over....I feel better! Lol
Formal windshields are different too.
Sedans and wagons are the same.
2 and 4 door hardtops are the same.
They don't interchange.
Heavy duty vacuum tree came in today...
I'm going to block the ports I don't use on this vacuum tree with brass pipe plugs.
