Quote: That's an intriguing question. On one side is the fact that Chrysler [ or any other manufacturer for that matter ] never spent the money to put a part on a car if they didn't think it was necessary.
VERY true .... and the one item that comes to mind is the drain-plug on the 727 trans some years back ..... Mopar eliminated that plug because it saved (so I heard) FIVE CENTS per pan ......
...but there was another second MINOR reason. ANYone else know that ?
