DOES THE HDK SUSPENSION K-MEMBER HANDLE BETTER THAN A T-BAR SUSPENSION?
For anyone interested....and kinda back on topic.
Cold, wet and rainy here in NW Ohio....so between trips to Boutwell Customs to check out a small paint color correction on my buddy Marks Hemi Demon, checking up on the 69 back half Dart build, and adding components to the Hellcat / Road Runner as they show up, I decided it was as good of time as any to change out the Qa1 1" extended ball joint (been in there since 2010) for the 2" All Star versions in the silver Duster.
I really like what I see, so much I cut one apart to examine how I might adapt the 2" stud as a retro fit to the Qa1 / adjustable pre-load housing. Unfortunately the heat treated ball portion is slightly larger than the Qa1 ball. So I headed to the machinist to see if he can built the longer stud to fit in the Qa1 adjustable pre-load housing for the HDK customers. Be an fairly easy swap out because you would not even have to remove the Qa1 ball joint housing from the control arm, simply unlock and unscrew the lid.
Life is good.
