MJ's 71 Beaver (Dart)
This thread is not dead. We’ve been slowly plugging away at things. Mj and I both found out we’re having our first kids (daughters) 3 weeks apart in March so I can’t imagine that’s going to speed this process up. We have stripped, rebuilt and painted front uppers and lower control arms. 1.08” torsions are on the way or maybe already here, idk. Front disc conversion has been around for a while so we hand tightened it together and measured for front wheels. I’m thinking a 15x7” with a slight negative offset (curbside offset) and 225/60 tires will do. And as always please give us examples of wheel/tire combos you’ve ran on the front of your A-bodies. I always like to have more data points. Oh and we welded in the ball joints because mopar was awesome and made threads out of diarrhea. Those joints wouldn’t go past finger tight before popping out. Hopefully I waited long enough between welds to let the grease cool down and not cook the innards
