    Thanks for response. This RV cam makes power off idle and it is done at 4800 w/355 gears I'm in second gear in what seems like a blink of an eye. Before the fbo plate I was at 15 initial and 38 total the total on the plugs looked good but the idle was dirty, so 20 was where the vacuum stopped...

    UCA decisions

    James, the noise is coming from the upper bushings that are assembled with both shells right out of the bag. How do you grease them, take them apart? Pretty sure it would take a hammer, bushing driver and vise.

    UCA decisions

    The upper bushings are assembled, can't lube. The frame is tied. I can't get enough adjustment with the front lowered, it wants the torsion bars back up. Do the bushings in the QA1 ucas squeak? Sorry I'm not great with the computer

    Bolt in frame connectors

    Tim, I welded the Mancini bolt in connectors (same as mp) in my 69 Dart conv today. You will have to trim the outside rear more than you want to get them to fit with the torque boxes. So I just drilled a bunch of 1/2 inch holes in what was left for plug welds. I had to move the parking brake...
