    A Body Frame Connectors

    I have a 68 convertible and made sub frame connectors cheap from 1.5x 3 square stock. The difference was noticeable...even with the torque boxes. Both made a difference.

    Outer tie rod installation -solved

    I'm replacing my outer tie rod ends with Moog ES319R which rockauto lists as the correct part (no L or R indicator so I assumed it was good for both sides. The old one came off easy with a reverse thread (screw in to remove). The new one seems to be the opposite thread. I feel like I'm going...

    Did you have any issues clearing Floorplans with 2x3 or did you have to cut into the pans? Just curious.

    Need advise on Sub frame connectors

    I accepted that no matter what I would have to modify the connectors to fit my car. With that in mind i did a lot of research and bought 1.5" x 3" steel stock, cut the ends to mate to the car and welded them in. Huge difference and was only about $60. That size stock will clear the floor pans...

    [Found!] Torsion bar clip and upper control arm eccentric washer

    I know i can get these aftermarket but seeing if anyone has these laying around. 1) One of the upper control arm bolts I removed when replacing the control arm just had a regular washer on it vs the concentric washer. I assume that's no good so looking to see if anyone has 1 washer before I...

    Strut rod removal

    So I'm rebuilding the suspension on my 68 dart. It's all apart, new lca bushings in and new Qa1 uppers ready to go. I was reading the install advice on here and realized I forgot to check to strut rod bushings. They are indeed bad. Right now the rods are disconnected from the lca but connected...

    Lower control arm pivot nut - how do you stop the pivot shaft from spinning?

    Im doing a front end rebuild and am left with the LCA pivot nut which just spins the shaft when trying to remove. I left some tension on the torsion bar but that doesn't seem to help. I can't see anyway to hold the shaft still. Based on the other bushings, this one is probably non existent...

    68 Dart Lower Control arm nut size?

    In the process of removing my lower control arm for rebuild, the nut from the pin fell somewhere in the engine compartment and I cant find it. Are these bolts easily replaced or are they a special size? Thanks in advance.

    Brake Problems

    make sure the pushrod length is adjusted correctly if it's adjustable. There's a tool to ensure you have the right length. Otherwise you may not be getting full travel.

    Need help understanding Mopar ignition…no spark

    SOLVED - so my initial issue was a bad mopar orange ignition box. Replaced with a new (but bad) GM HEI module and replaced again with a good GM HEI. During troubleshooting i installed a new distributor rotor and cap and accidentally shifted all the wires one off. That was causing the no start...

    Need help understanding Mopar ignition…no spark

    UPDATE: Installed another new GM HEI module....now I have good spark from the coil. I guess the other [NEW] module from Amazon was bad. Car wanted to start but didn't. On to distribution....I'll recheck the plug gaps as I think they were .35 and as suggested should be .40 to .45 and make sure...

    Need help understanding Mopar ignition…no spark

    I did check the voltages. There are 2 wires coming from the key switch, one with 12v key on and one with 12v crank. They both are wired to the module and to the + of the coil. I'm thinking trigger problem as well.....

    Need help understanding Mopar ignition…no spark

    I appreciate the advice. The GM HEI is mounted to an aluminum plate with the correct paste. I tried 3 coils (original mopar, MSD cansiter, and the new FD478. I think i can rule out a coil failure. I verified a full 12v and despite the full 12v wired a relay direct to the battery to make sure.
