Great.. lol The front end of my 64 barracuda seems to have a very soft suspension in the front. The shocks were shot so that could be some. But did these cars have a soft front end suspension anyway?
Yes the bars get weak. Think about how old they are and how much work they have done. Typically you will see the cars front end begin to drop, lean to one side more than another or be bouncy like you noticed. No, I dont believe they were soft and bouncy to begin with. Somewhat soft, but not overly soft. There are some great company's that sell new bars PST who is a Vendor on here and we get a 10% discount for being FABO members, Firm Feel, and Just Suspension are to name a few aftermarket bar companies if your looking to upgrade someday.
I just purchased some bars from PST. Originally my Scamp came with .870" bars. I upgraded to 1.03" bars which from what I've researched will give it a more modern feel type of ride. The bars are specific for left and right sides but not front to back although, again thru research I found that the numbers stamped on one end of the bar is suppose to go towards the back of the car.
