Suspension & Steering Shopping List

It adds up quick if you do it on a spreadsheet... I opted to not know and just started researching individual parts and researched here on FABO. I also asked 72blunblu direct on anything I ended up fuzzy on, and got convinced that after buying new leaf springs, Mopar spindles and new disc brakes to convert and so on and so forth, sticking with slant 6 torsion bars was an oversight if I wanted a car that would actually turn LOL. Throwing money left and right can get interesting quick when you have never set up a car of any type, forget it being Mopar, to do anything at all, and now I want it to turn... hmmm... lol. I don’t want to know what my total is up to and not sure how much included all new interior and wiring etc, but not cheap and I know it will only go higher, or be unavailable, so building my dream car, I spend the money... now I just have to find the time to keep installing parts without running into more of the last owner’s errors... which add to the cost.

I’m not sure what rate leaf springs you need but I just bought a set from Espo (springsnthings) and they were speced to my car. I went with 340 springs 6 leaf and I think they are either a 120 or 130 rate, the 5 leaf were around 90 rate. Haven’t driven in them yet but very impressed with the quality and firm suspension feel pushing down on the bumper.

Good luck on the build, hope you can find the dollars and time.
