Pro Touring 72 Demon build
Years of restoring Mopars has taught me that dropping the body down over the drivetrain the way the factory did is the only way to go, especially if you're doing it solo. I have a few dolly's and things I have made over the years to help this. Being able to bolt everything together outside of the car makes life so much easier when dealing with headers and big torsion bars, plus there is no bench pressing a transmission under the car. The front bar attaches to the bumper bracket holes and I use an axle strap to pick it up with the engine hoist. The strap allows the body to move around easily, if needed, to line up the 4 K frame bolt holes.
