    Pitman/Tie rod taper

    Does anyone know the taper of c-body pitman arm stud as compared to other common angles (7 an 10 degrees). And I know it's "larger" than a-body stuff, but I'm looking for actual numbers. I'm getting a measurement of ~18 degrees on my '71 pitman arm stud so I'm getting confused as well. I need to...

    Shocks for lowered rear

    I know I've heard to consider the shorter shock of a mid-90s nissan p/u 2wd when lowering the front any considerable amount, but is there a cross-over application suggestion when lowering the rear, too? I plan to flip my spring hangers...

    Sway bar tutorial

    Front disc conversion and rear leaf flip Q's

    I have a 1969 Dart Custom \6. Front: Using the F/M-body spindles + '73-up UCA to do disc conversion. If I want to lower the front some using the torsion bar adjuster, how much can I go and keep acceptable alignment specs? These spindles are slightly taller than a-bodies, so am I already in the...

    Tubular upper a-arms - Should I be worried?

    Story goes something like this: Researched upper a-arms for doing a BBP disc conversion on my '69 Dart and found tubular CroMo on eBay for not much more than what people wanted for a set of stock big ball-joint arms. Plus they claimed to improve the caster among other things. So I took the...

    Suspension mods vendors and p/n?

    I've been hearing about these mods that are being done, but not sure where to get them or which one: 1) Adjustable strut rods with heim joints) 2) Nylon LCA bushing (or is that what some call polyurethane?) 3) C-body tie-rods (model and years?) 4) Solid tie-rod sleeve. I think I read that...

    Rear spring/shock plates

    Does anyone know if the spring plate/shock mount from a '73 B-body 8 1/4" rear will fit my '69 Dart when I convert to 8 1/4" rear? Just concerned about the angle (looking from the side) of the shock being correct. Thanks

    14" BBP rims on 11" discs?

    So I'm going with '87 Fifth Avenue (M body) spindles and calipers to do my disc conversion on my '69 Dart Custom /6. I bought new tires when I first got it and they are still almost new. Without having to buy new tires, are there 14" BBP rims off of something that will fit the 11" discs? Thanks

    A-arms and K members

    Two questions: I've seen a pair of 64-72 B-body/70-74 E-body upper a-arms advertised as working for an a-body disc brake conversion. Is this true/possible? I thought only 73-76 a-body upper a-arms would work on, say, a 69 a-body. And what models/years V8 K members will work in my 69 Dart to...
