Wide Fronts on a 68 Dart
It might have 7200 tops. I've got 6200 on this motor. And maybe 1000 tops before I put the new motor in.
I do have stiff 1.12 T-bars. But a little thicker sidewall than some 245/50/5 tires.
I'll probably just buy the more expensive heims.
Really?!
Seems to me like they should last quite a bit longer than that in ideal conditions. I would never expect them to last as long as a bushing just because of the design, but anything under 10k miles is a pretty big hassle. I figured mine went simply because of the use on wet roads and the tendency to pick up road grime when that happens.
On the A-body Hotchis UCA's do the heims sit in the middle with the arms perpendicular to the UCA mounts? Ie, do you think that the heims could be replaced with something like this?
On the E-body there's no way, the tube of the UCA is actually at a slight angle to the mounting bracket, and with the relocated front mount there's no way to put anything other than a heim in there.
