    When you figure out powersteering let us know what you do. I was thinking try to make the progressive power steering system work like it did in the lexus. It's got its own computer box under the glove box and from what I have read on lexus forums it mostly just needs input from a speed sensor to...

    Do the tires or any thing rub at all? What did you do about the progressive power steering solenoid that is on the lexus steering rack?

    How bad is ground clearance on rear cross member? Can that Crossmember be eliminated and just build lower control arm mounts off the frame? Would that fix ground clearance? What did you do for oil pan and motor mounts? How does the aluminum cross member attach to the frame?

    Did you do it yourself? How well did it fit? What had to be done to make it fit? What size tires rims and offset are you using? Did you use sc400 struts or some coilovers? Did you do any reinforcing of the front of the car? How does it handle?

    Dart sport dart swinger quarters

    And as far as tires go yes more limited with the smaller wheel wells but it's do able with correct offset and other mods depending how wide a tire you want. when I was 8 or 9 years old my stepdad had a 68 dart with the b body rear axle mini tubs springs moved in under frame rails wheel well lips...

    Dart sport dart swinger quarters

    Not really interested in it for the challenge or because no one else has done it. More just a what if the designers at dodge had the time and budget to make a new quarter panel for the dart sports with correct wheel opening when they made the sports instead of just slapping a dart front clip on...

    Dart sport dart swinger quarters

    If I used just the wheel well then the line going into it between the wheel well and door wouldn't line up because the dusters and sports have that line drop down. And between the wheel wells and doors the bottom couple of inches is what needs replaced on my car. That's why I figured go from...

    Dart sport dart swinger quarters

    This is what I am talking about the purple part is dart. Everything else is dart sport (duster). By the door and along the top should be close. Notice the difference in the body line at rear of purple section that and the trunk extension are what might need to be modified. The lime green by the...

    Dart sport dart swinger quarters

    I would keep the sport (duster) decklid, tail panel and rear bumper. would just be changing the wheel well and lowest body line. Just using bellow the center body line of a dart quarter panel and sectioning it in. the front of the quarter panel and along the center line should match up fairly...

    Side stripes

    Has anyone seen side stripes like these before? They're kind of like aar style stripes but they stay the same size the whole way down the side of the car. They are painted on. Curious if there is a stencil or anything to use to recreate them. I am gonna start sanding the car down for rust repair...

    Ignition switch stuck

    Probably not heater core. This car has sat for several years with no motor or trans or radiator and from what I understand has been just sitting in each owners garage for a couple of years then getting passed onto the next. Last registered owner is a guy I went to high school with couple grades...

    Ignition switch stuck

    Pulled my dart out of the barn today to wash her up so I can get ready to start working on it finally. I know the ignition switch worked and I could steer it when I put it in the barn 2.5 years ago but now i can't get the key to turn at all. Any ideas how to break it loose?

    Dart sport dart swinger quarters

    The part that looks the most difficult to line up and look right would be the rear end of the lower body line that is what looks to be the most different and would take the most fabrication to line up.

    I hate the pointed nose too. That and the bumpers are why I want to convert it to a 71 front end. I like cars that are different but look like they could have came that way.

    Dart sport dart swinger quarters

    Not really worried about resale value. A 76 dart isn't really a high value car to begin with. And this one has rust and stuff that needs repaired anyway. I can do some fabrication but not good at welding sheet metal so I would hire someone to do it. What do you mean by hemi dart wheel well...

    Dart sport dart swinger quarters

    The dart sports like mine are basically just a duster with a dart front clip. Because of that the front wheel wells are shaped differently than the rear wheel wells. Has anyone welded the lower half of a 2 door dart quarter panel into a sport? Pretty much whole quarter below the center body...

    This is the 93 to 02 Crossmember alot different then the 88-92s. the green part is the aluminum cross member. Black part is a Crossmember that connects to rear part of the lower control arm. I will not use that just make some mounts for the lower control arm and weld them mounts to the subframe

    That's correct for the 88 to 92 but I have been looking at the 93 to 02. 93-02 it's the same between supra and Lexus and both of them are aluminum

    Another thing about this suspension is the wheel studs will be metric so would need different lugnuts in the front or will have to change the studs with standard ones

    There is a small hole with a rubber grommet directly above the axle centerline on the inner fenders inside the wheel Wells there's braces going to those holes does anyone know what those are for? That will be about where the upper spring mounts will be.

    Measured the dart inside of frame to inside of frame is 30 inches outside of the frame to outside the frame of 34.5 inches So if the supra cross member is 31 inch between bolt holes it should be pretty easy to make it work. Our subframe is also almost exactly the same width as the f100s...
