Guys, do you have any tips on the best way to install the subframes? My Dodge is fully assembled. How to do it safe and straight?

No problem. I just didn't understand the joke. Brazilian hugs for you!

Hello friends. After a long time without publishing anything here, I have news for my Dart. Finally I bought subframes to improve body rigidity. They were made here in Brazil by my friend Adriano Tilly. Any tips on how to weld them in the car without problems? Happy ney year to you all!

Hi Guys! The is great to drive around. My friend Johnny Dart was wondering how is the Dart´s interior. So here some pics you to see how we made Mopars: To the next thread! Let´s keep talking

Hey Moparian friends!!! I have finish the 74' Dodge Dart DeLuxo. Now it is drive like new. Fantastic car! Soon I will do another suspension thread. Thanks!!!

Hello Aaron! This is original stuff! This cap is used with a support that is installed on the wheel. Than it´s just put the cap on. We have other kinds of cap too! Thanks!

Hi Clhyer! Thanks for your comment. We have some regions that cause more others, principally near to beaches and very humid cities. Think that is like in US some good and bad weather for rust. No, here we never produce anything under Plymouth name. Only imported. Our gas is garbage...

Hey Johnny!! Thanks a lot about your comment!! It´s a 74! Here in Brazil the production line was different than USA production. Basically we have two generation of Mopar here in Brazil. The first one is from late 69 to late 78. They are all a-bodies. The Dart´s from these age are similar to the...

Hey Cudavert! Those dimension that I told you are torsion bar thickness. Sorry about that mistake. You asked about sway bar, I checked the service manual but it don´t have this information. I will measure the sway bar thickness with caliper gauge!

Hello Aj!! When I was installing the LCA the polyurethane bushing always came out of the pivot, about 1/2 inch. I try to remove all lubrication, put the torsion bar in place, but just moving little the LCA and it move back.... The bushing look in good shape. One more thing, a lot of...

Cudavert74, Look the way I did the LCA reinforciment on my 78 Dodge Dart: Thanks for your tips. Your rebuild is fantastic, congragulations!

Hi again my friend!!! Thanks for the tip!! I told the same thing to the car owner. But he isn´t interesting on that. The previously owner welded two small metal sheet on the torsion bar end. They reinforce the LCA a little. On my car I used FFI reinforce plates. The LCA is now much more...

Hi Cudavert, thanks for comment! Yes! All Brazilian a-bodies suspension is similar to 68 American Dart. Early style from 1969 to 1981, when the last word a-body was produced! Our sway bars have 0,870 inch (22,1 mm) all years and all models have the same sway bar. In my other thread some...

Hi Poison Dart!!! I used off set bushing on my Dart project. My friend, owner of this car, want it original, without racing proposes, so we will use PST polygraphite UCA bushing. I love the effect of more caster. I can run my Dart on 7° of caster using off set bushings. Thanks for your...

Moparians, These are some pics of Dart's old parts. All bushing, tie end rods, ball joints and shocks must be changed. We already have all parts, most of them OEM. Only some bushings that we will use polyurethane. Check it out Old Parts: Shocks without any action. Lower...

I have two books, that one written by Mike Martin and other from Chrysler Group: Chassis Speed Secrets by Carroll Shelby - PN P4349341. Booth are good. The Shelby is more technical!

Cudavert, thanks for your comment!!! The car needs to be painted, but he is really beautiful!! A lot of Mopar Car Guys here in Brazil know this car! Have a good history of nice collectors. The is on the shop now and I'm working on suspension. All the rear are now mounted with new Monroe...

Hey man! Thanks for your question. Unfortunately here in Brazil we didn't have much options and modifications along the years. All of Brazilian Mopar´s came with 318 LA engine, 3 options of transmission (4 speed manual, 3 speed manual or speed automatic) and all years suspension is similar...

Hello my friends! I´ve been way for a while, but now I´m working on a friends car suspension. His name is Marcos Trebien and he has a 74' Dodge Dart DeLuxo. The color combination is great: dark metallic green on all body and brown interior. Some pics to you guys meet the car...
