RE: IML: 56 Balist Resistor

["Chad & Teresa Smith" <hemi_powered@xxxxxxx>]

One more thing....just take the part in, tell that it is a Chrysler part, 
and ask them to look on the shelves for one that looks like it...but, I 
would try the Dodge truck first.  We actually pulled the one out of our 1978 
Dodge Chassis motorhome to put on Chad's truck after I robbed him of his.  
So, it seems that finding an nterchange shouldn't be that hard, and if I 
remember right, the ballast resistor on my sister's 1966 Newport was also 
the same one.
