This 73+ k-frame is going in a 1969 Valiant.
Firm Feel gusset kit.
Seam welded.
Firm Feel roller idler arm kit.
LCA plates.
Bergman Autocraft Delrin bushings and pins.
QA1 strut rods.
Hellwig 5905 1-1/4" sway bar.
Not being used are my Hotchkis fast ratio pitman/idler arms ( [FOR SALE] - Fast Ratio Pitman/Idler Arm ) as they won't clear the TTi's without some surgery to one of the primaries. I am using K7075 Moog pitman. Also, I have some Proforged LBJ's, SPC (old style) UCA's, OEM spindles, Viper brake kit, & little button bump stops to put on, so stay tuned.
The QA1 torsion bar adjusters came with 4 thick washers but I couldn't figure out where they go. Anyone know?
The roller bearing idler arm takes a lot of work to do but not hard. The sway bar was a pain to install. The bars that the bushings mount to took a bit of grinding to fit on the k-frame properly and I am displeased with the bolts. It's only 1-1/4" and I couldn't find one that was 1-1/2". The 1.24" torsion bars and Hotchkis Fox shocks will make up for the .25" I think.
Coming at a later date will be a PST or Firm Feel 16:1 box to replace the core box I have on there now.
Oh, btw, I was really excited that when I went on Rock Auto and found 340 engine mounts. Beware, they're just 318 mounts. I just used some thick washers on the different mount.
