I put stock HD leafs under my '67 fastback, put two extra clamps in front of the axle at the leaf ends, removed all stock clamps behind the axle. Front was no sway bar, /6 torsion bars, 1/16th toe-in. Also I adjusted rear brake drums in a bit to reduce parasitic drag, and made sure front brake...

For future reference, you just open with any media application, rotate it, then save it again.

Fixed the orientation of the pics...

Width 52 5/8" , spring perches c-c 43"

Set it up for a slight rear weight bias, like 45/55.

New to unibody cars?

oldkimmer your pm box is full...got a question for you

Neat piece for the millionaire wanting to fill his personal Mopar museum. Not much use for it otherwise.

A good trick to ensure your boxes are in line with each other and the stock location is get a piece of threaded rod and nuts that are the same diameter as the spring perch mounting holes. Line them up with the rod, snug the nuts, check measurements then tack it in. Then recheck your measurements...

I sell 66-70 B body rears to Duster/Demon owners, just weld new perches on and it's almost perfect for most wheels. '65 B body rear is actually better as it's a little narrower, but harder to find.

If you have one from a bigger car cut to fit, make sure you get the shock plates and brakes with it.

Nice design, looks stronger than stock.

Good insurance...just make a plate for front and back up to the axle tube. These are the perches you can buy from Calvert, same idea.

Drill a series of holes in the frame rail, plug weld it.

Do yourself a favor and get cal-tracs or assassin bars. Pinion snubbers worked great in the '70s and '80s, but this is 2016. There are much better options. Just my .02

Some people just get way too emotional over subjects that require a rational state of mind. I definitely wouldn't install frame connectors while a car is on the rotisserie. In my opinion you want it resting on a level surface and fully supported or I think you could "lock it in" to a slightly...

I would agree that's most likely a superior method described in that paper, thanks for the link. It also looks like it might be an easier method for the serious amateur to use in the home shop. But whichever method is used, my point was to show that there's a way to move the discussion past...

No need for computer models, a torsional test will separate fact from fiction. This type of fixture with attachment points at the wheels is the proper method:

Just do a dana 60 and be done with it. Contact Dr Diff he can set you up.

x2 Buy a complete setup as a unit and rebuild it all.

Your best bet is to buy a K member and suspension from a later car to rebuild and swap in, you may even find one with sway bar mounts. Personally I would look for the '73+ setup.

Great looking Dart. Purple with black top looks awesome

I ran a 9 x 28 tire on the street 25 years ago and it hooked great with a 11 second 440 in an A-body. I know tires have vastly improved since then, NO need for full tubs anymore unless you're a very serious player. In fact I beat several fully tubbed cars off the line LOL.

If you tub it, you better run 7s in the 1/4 mile or you'll get endless ridicule. IMO run the 10.5s....plenty of very fast cars with that much tire and less.

Hah...I've got Super Tricks for my '67 coupe, only in 10 and 3.5. Doing the mini tub thing with 470" B stroker. Car has no rust on the body but a broken back window and soggy carpet ruined the floors.

'67-'69 Barracuda has a 108 inch wheelbase '67-'76 Dart Hardtop has a 111 inch wheelbase, basically a 3 inch stretch rearward compared to the Barracuda. Both cars perform exactly the same at the dragstrip. Move the rear back.

Surely you could make it 15-20 pages if you really tried. Huge bold print, lots of nice pictures from every angle of every little step involved and then of the finished product.

Stuff like this is marketed to dumb kids in Civics who want to look like racers. Something to think about...
