Suspension Options?

Eirn Koon said
Hello, I am new to the forum and I just recently became the proud owner of a 65 Barracuda with a 273 V8 4bl. I am wondering what my options are for suspension conversions for the vehicle? the torsion bar set up leaves a little to be desired. I am looking to free up space under the vehicle to eventually run better exhaust/engine upgrade. Is there another A-body that I can transfer parts from, or am I stuck at dropping big bucks for custom components/Lots of fabrication time? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. If there has been a discussion on this and I missed it please direct me where to go - Thanks

You mentioned that you don't want to spend big bucks, so this may not be of interest to you, but it's another option if anyone else might be looking for a good chassis overhaul. Hot Rod Chassis and Cycle installed a set of their Fabricator Series frame rails in my '65 Barracuda. These enable the use of Detroit Speed's "AlumaFrame" coilover front suspension and steering setup with tubular control arms, anti-roll bar, and easy caster/camber adjustability. front subframe.jpg
