Didn't you make some kind of fixture with a pin-'stop' so you could just drop the pin in the piston and rod, and so it would end up at the right place everytime?

Never thought I was going to say this is in this topic, but your cousin has some "seriously big looking headlights"... lol ;o) Has she been to France already?

Nice and heavy duty work. I'm using C-body disc rotors and calipers on my Dart. 11.75" diameter, 1.25" thickness. Not really a weight improvement but they do the job without issues. I've got a pair of Wilwood 4-piston calipers at hand, but their combined piston diameter is smaller than the...

The lower radiator braces don't really keep the frame rails from widening or getting narrower, that job is taken care of the K-member. The lower support counters the frame rails from twisting and moving up & down in relation to each other, when engine torque and/or cornering forces caused from...

Nice progress. You're also adding a lot of weight. Make sure you upgrade the Torsion bars to more manly sizes... ;) As for the added crossbar, I'm not sure yet how you think it will help strengthening the frame rails if you keep it removable. Isnt' the crankpulley in about the same place as...

1.5 or 2mm would be enough indeed.

Progress is looking good. The springclamps you made will make for an uncomfortable ride if you tighten them too much. The stock 'clamps' were designed to only get the leafs together and on top of each other. I made my own from a few simple strips of iron which I cut to length and wrapped/folded...

They always snapped firmly onto the wheels but still eventually worked their way off again.

When I started daily driving my '73 it had doggies on the stock 14" factory wheels. I had 5 of them. But after I had lost 2 of them with only 1 found back, I decided to just put the remaining 4 on my garage wall. Couldn't get them to stay put long enough. Probably too much flex in the steel...

Use the swaybar. Along with a good set of shocks the car's behavior will improve again.

Nice going there. My own '73 has had a facelift aswell making it look 2 years 'older' but way better! Mine's on the right;

Nice find and project. I have a '57 4dr hardtop Belvedere myself with similar plans.

"You are being good busy with your project man"... :D

Howdy, I've bought myself a Dodge Dart recently, which I'll be using as my dailydriver pretty soon. The Dart is a '73 model but the PO managed to swap a '71 (?) frontclip on the car. He also installed 4.5" discbrakes, rebuilt the front suspension and powdercoated the K-member. The car has been...
