Torsion bars are what lift the decklid. They are mounted under rear sail panel and run side to side. If you go with a fiberglass lid they wouldnt be needed.

Sorry for the long post, hope it's helpful. I just finished installing USCT subframe connectors and torque boxes 5 days ago. Installation was done with the car completely disassembled and mounted on a rotisserie. I can weld but I'm not a welder if you know what I mean. Earlier this year we...

That is a nice setup. Thanks for your advice. I used 2” square tubing and 2” angle when I did the rear of my car and it worked real well. I used a factory frame chart and checked for level before and after using a digital level. My lift is very level, so I set the car on it and leveled it to...

Thanks for all of the kind words of support everyone. This place is one of my favorite spots on the web for reasons like this. We will all move on together and I'll start on another project eventually. I'll try to answer some of the questions the best I can. So far, State Farm has been...

Pretty easy fix. You will need an assistant. First, open the deck lid to the full open position. Have your assistant hold it in that position. Then carefully measure the distance from the highest point on the decklid to the trunk floor. Then carefully transfer that measurement to a 1-1/2 x 3-1/2...

I would never lift a Mopar by the bumper, the bumpers were never built strong enough to support the weight of the car. So I wouldn't worry about that. If you had any concern I would worry (wonder) about a front end collision. During a low speed front end collision the bumper could help a...

Nice and I bet it has a trunk load of street manners. While you are out cruising and having fun, the guy with the 600 horse small block is back at his garage cleaning the tires. His car isn't a lot of fun to drive any more. Every time he blips the throttle the tires go up in smoke and it heads...

You stated " The Red Brick was able to hang with a C6 vette, just torsion bars and leaf springs." I think you are oversimplifying how the Red Brick can stay with a Vette. " Here's the builder's description of "The Red Brick" 1968 Plymouth Valiant 427 Engine Swap - Mopar Muscle Magazine...

I didn't oversimplify anything. Excluding the engine, which we're not really talking about here, there are only a few differences between my car and the Red Brick. The 6 point cage, the Nascar sway bar, and 1.2" bars mostly. There are quite a few components on my car that exceed the capabilities...

Just got a call from another Barracuda guy. Hes been hoarding parts for years. My lettering is supposed to be VALIANT on the trunk. And no prop rod. But ratcheting lift support. Off to the parts book...

So I’ve got a 1966 Formula S here at my shop hidden. A guy stopped in and wants to buy it. It’s a parts car and missing body sections I used for my car. Interior is trashed and drive train is all there. He wants me to “prove” it’s a genuine Formula S. So I show him the vin number, the hood...

I was going to suggest the same link. I hope someone derives benefit from my "how to " article. :thumbsup:

Still better than an opioid addiction and they don't keep receipts.

That's why it was just a trunk jack, until it folded after minimal, appropriate usage! Regardless, it's literally only ever hoisted Neons, which is well within its ratings (almost typed 'abilities', and had to nix that). And the one job on the Caliber which, now that I think about it, it was...

Do you have NB or FB? I think you want to drop the tank down about 6" and support it. Feed the filler tube in from the top. Twist the tube back and forth until it goes in. Then lift the tank a little so you can pull out the filler tube and screw it to the rear panel. Then push the tank up...

It's a fastback. I'll rig something up under the tank and give that a shot.

On these cars you can use a floor jack anywhere you want to on the frame or rear end. Never on floor pans or bumpers of course. I have also used a 4x4 between the lower arm and the front crossover of the frame to lift the wheel up to put a support under the tire.

Your box is full

Mine was the same, no reasonable amount of weight or bouncing would reset them. Try using a pry bar to physically move the shackles to the correct angle and see if they stay there. When I did it on mine the shackles actually popped back once I got them started in that direction. I also had...

Not sure how many on here have ever married a red head but here is an example. Keep in mind we have 9 grandkids let's just say we know each other! So this morning I get a ten minute rant on why my laundry does not go on the floor in front of the washing machine. It goes in "my" laundry basket...
