Reverse your brain and mount the snubber on floor of car pointing downwards to pinion on rear diff.

There are two schools of thought and depends what your plans are for the car. My .02 think it is a waste of cash that could go towards other things. However; if you need bragging items than it is one way to spend the money. Apparently corner carving with modern vehicles then tubular is the way...

Yes. I run a spool mount k frame in my 67 dart.

I used the 002/003 springs on my 67 dart. I loved the raked look. I found the ride more comfortable than some newer vehicles. I ended up bending them at the rear eye so I had to replace. I recently put on the caltrac setup with their +1 spring and I found the rear sat too low for my liking...

May have changed, but price point is still expensive. No need to get into a pissing match again. Just throwing out options.

Just a stock replacement setup for me. Mainly street. Mopar action green brick formula Archives

I have a 67 dart same as your 69 I did the 3" inboard kit from Mancini. Cut my own steel strips to tub the wheel wells. I followed these tech pages (before fabo) Tech Index I have a stock width A body (52 5/8 housing) 8 3/4 with the c body axles. (Moser) Backspace is 7.25 with custom made...

Steering box clocked wrong? Should be centered when installed. Can't recall when I did mine, but is the electric assist centered?

I got mine from summit racing. Can't recall what I paid but it was not over $100

:drama:Wow... Just wow

The overlord has spoken!! Let's all bow down and kiss his rectum!! Save your money and put towards tires unless you want to spend dollars and brag to your buddies?

Exactly the Information that should of been brought to view for an educated decision for the original poster. Missinformation about drawbacks etc. This is why I responded to throw out a viewpoint to take note and look at. Research is what they are after. I still believe it's a waste of cash...

This was when I was building my dart. Maybe 10 years ago? Things have likely changed alot since then. It was all over Fabo at the time. Heim joints was another issue. Hotchkiss and many others were not available at the time This is coming from memory and a bit foggy.

Last I heard alot of people had breakage at the welds, or bending on pot holes from all the different manufacturers. This is why I stayed true to stock but with offset bushing I followed this chart and got the typical performance street settings. Alignment shop did some tweaking to get it though

After I blew up a clutch type I went trutrac and never looked back. Can't think of any complaints. I bought one for the Dana 60 for when I do that swap.

Installed in car and worked great until I forgot to reinstall oil in tranny :-(

I did the contoured subframe connectors. Yes it looks pretty, but who is crawling under the car? BIG pain in the tush I would never go that route again! Instead i would do the 2x3x .125 wall tubing. Similar to this Making your own sub frame connector?

Save some engine bay space abd go electric power steering. Just throwing it out there

Just adding this to the thread it has been a few years. I used Rancho RS999116 shocks. I do remember drilling out the one bushing (poly) but I tried the other shock and it went on fairly easy without drilling. So i think with a bit of soap it will slip on easily

Ok this started as a rabbit hole. I am planning a big block swap in my 67 dart. It currently has a stroked 340 with w5 heads and power steering. Now a big block stroker and headers creates an issue with power steering. I wanted to keep power steering and 2 inch headers for a potential 512...

I second this

Have you heard anyone using this in a big block A body application and big 2" headers? That is the research rabbit hole I am in now

Go to auto parts store and pickup a 95 dakota 318 starter. It's a mini starter compared to the stock heavy cast iron

Make your own for half the price of all the above.

What leaf springs and caltracs did people use before caltrac came out with their own leaf springs? Because caltrac springs are new within the last 10 years or so.

No. I run the stock 52 5/8 width housing (A body 8.75) with the wider axle flange. (B body) It's the custom offset for the wheels that makes it hard. I have 15x10 rims with 7 1/4 or 7 1/2 inch offset. Cant recall off the top of my head. Plus I run disc brakes with 1/4 inch thick rotors which...

Traction If any more info is needed

I have no issues with my 002 /003 ss springs and Rancho 9 way shocks They ride better then any modern vehicle I have been in. I do have big 325 50 15 tires on the back. The rear end does kick out when in the twisties but I have to be on it hard. Same with any other vehicle. Unless it has sissy...

I have 002 and 003 ss springs on my 67 dart. I jacked the rear up with longer shackles (here comes the nay sayers) Moved springs inboard and stuffed 325 50 15 nitto tires. Now the ride quality. It rides better then my 2012 ram longhorn Also rides better then my wife's 13 ford fiesta Also better...

I debated this as well. I saved my pennies and went the green brick route. Moog offset bushings. Mopar action green brick formula I chased the alignment specs for typical street performance from the chart below. I honestly think my dart with ss springs rides better then my new Longhorn ram...
