Torque strap

[polarus]

Anybody know which cars received a torque strap? Was it part of a trailer towing package?

Mine was on a '69 Fury III with a 318/automatic.

I have a 70 with a 383 and towing package, no strap

Never heard of a tow package that included a strap. Where did you get that info from?

Just taking an UN-educated guess, I'd just like to know why some cars got them when others didn't. I can't find it listed in my parts book, so I thought maybe it was part of a package.

The point is, I can't ever recall a Mopar having them.

Back in the day (1980's) a friend of mine used to buy old Mopars and fix them or part them out depending on condition. He only found these torque straps on big block C bodies, now we have a member that has a small block Polara with one. Did mother Mopar have some kind of rhyme or reason? Mopar...for every rule there's an exception.

There are two different part numbers
9-64-35 CABLE, Engine Roll w/Auto Trans
318 - 2951589
383/440 - 2951590

9-64-36 SPACER
9-64-37 BUSHING

My 318 car that has one also has SureGrip

Is that part number is from a 69 parts book? It's not listed in my 72.

I believe my 69 383 had one
