drag link hitting my 187 pan

dkbug · Aug 10, 2014

Just swapped a 440 into my 70 swinger and I am having problems with drag link clearance. I have stock front suspension with a 187 oil pan. Does anyone have any tips or secrets before I go to grinding on my sway bar?

Thanks, DK

You might read thru here and do more searches over at BBD.com.

Plus, is it your drag link or sway bar hitting as you mentioned both in this thread.

Your steering linkage height may need to be adjusted. It is adjustable by filing the idler arm mounting holes and shimming the steering box. Specs and instructions are in the MP chassis manual.

Figured it out. Transmission mount wasn't bolted up
