I'm starting to do something with the rear on my 71 dart, i measured the pinion angle, its sitting around 0*, what i'm wanting to do is set it around -3*, then clamp the front section of the springs in 2 areas on each side, should i take out the "straps" on the back section of the springs or leave them be, what is a good over the counter parts house shock to use, i've heard ones for a ford truck would work, is this true? If anyone can throw me some part #s that would be great, not looking for any high $$ shocks like Ranchos, just a decent "heavy duty" shock, its an 8.3/4 with stock springs, also, what have some of you guys done with your rear suspention on the cheap, looking for ideas.
Also thinking about the "brute force" U-joints, should i get the solid ones or the others?
