Maybe not how strong, but I can clearly tell you when it's too cold, lacks fusion, and looks good. I don't think anyone was questioning a weld but there was a reference to if something was fully welded or not. Understanding what goes on in the base metal, as well as the weldment and how the HAZ...

I vote for pink.............LOL no black.

Bummer. I'll have to post up some pics here as soon as I can.

You guys have some sweet cars. I have a 75 duster minitubbed, w/ Dana 60 Fremont a 69 ford F250 narrowed and converted to semi float axles ( mosier 35 spline) Detroit locker, and 31/10.50 15 Hoosier slick. Can't post pic from my phone but here is a link. Car is still in fabrication, but once fab...

I would never expect it for free. You gotta pay for R&D. That's a given. It's not fair to just expect it for nothing. I'm willing to buy it complete, but was just thinking that if I could build it it would be fun. I love building stuff. But just a price is cool too.

I'm intrested, but need to know how much. I would also even consider buying just a set of plans to fab it up myself. If that is a possibility. Let me know. I have a fairly well stocked fab shop at my disposal, so that's not much of an issue. Just need to know the dimensions.

When I built my ladder bars and stuffed a 31 10.50 under my duster, there is no room to move front or back the tire dictates axle location. So moving things around wont always work

install a panhard bar. it ill remove all side to side movement, altghough it will not appear stock

pm returned. I'll measure them and post pics here this weekend for you.

measure them, and let me know. i have some brand new energy suspension ones i would send you for shipping. but i wont have access to them untill saterday.

behind the axle is not a big deal. In fornt of the axle is not a big deal. I need to know why. And not because that's what everyone else does. I want to know what makes them work better, or worse for a given location. I have a real hard time accepting where to put them, "just because" I was...

thanks for the pics. Looks like I might be going the sameway you did. I need to cut out the trunk for the fuel cell anyway, so I might just cut it out a little bigger and then renstall one big panel to rebuild the trunk floor. although I'm still looking for a reason as to why I can or can't...

im installing a ladder bar and coilover set up on my 75 duster. the problem i have is that without a bunch of sheet metal removal i cannot mount them to the rear of the axle tube. will it be ok to mount them on the front they are QA1 single adjustable coilovers. this car will see street and...

I can't remember what the box came out of. But I know it was a 60 something. I wanna say valliant, but I could be wrong. I'll have to grab the moog arm listed above and give it a shot. Thanks for all the help guys. This place rocks.

I have a 75 duster, and i picked up a used gear box, to convert it to manual steer, and the power pitman arm does not work. (wont hold tight as the shaft on the gearbox is too small for the pitman arm) anyone know a part number to get the one I need? thanks a bunch.

yeah I might fab some sort of retiner into a new flange just to make sure they don't fail. I tend to overbuild everything.

thanks man. I'm just not used to messing with this small of an axle. I know it's bullet proof for my car, it's just not what I'm used to. So I gotta ask questions. Thanks a bunch.

I am building a dana, and it was narrowed some so when I got my moser axles, they came with green berrings already installed (by the shop that narrowed the housing) so I drop the axles into the houshing and get looking at the bearrings and the retaining plate, and I'm surprised that the little...

I have never driven my car but I am going to rebuild the front end in a few months. 35 year old bushings in the AZ heat I know they are junk. After I get the motor mounts built for the hemi, it's time to bow apart the front end and clean it up. Replace everythng and reassemble it. Motor mounts...

blue missile what door handle is that I like that. Might have to take your idea.

my axle is getting setup to 51 1/2 disk to disk.we stuck the tires under the car where we wanted them and that's what we came up with. I'm hopeing the it's correct. If not I guess I'll be choping up the car more.

i would just sell the gear box but tell them your going to store it for them untill the car is ready to drop it for them.

if you look around you should be able to locate a manual steering column for about 150. I would rather spend a little more and eliminate the "adapter" it's just one less thing to fail.

MD how wide is your axle from monnting surface of the wheel to mounting sueface. If you posted it I'm sorry I can remember or find it.

yeah tell me about it. I haven't even had my car on the road yet ad thought about installing back half. And I just got wheels and tires to fit for my mini tubs.....lol

unfortunatly i cannot do the leave the axle bolted in thing. as i currently have a 7 1/4 under the car and the ladderbars will be going on a dana 60 that we are in the process of getting narrowed and then we will build it. i would hate to install spring purches on it just to cut them off again...

ok I'm looking at ladder bars for my duster (its a 75) and I don't know how long of a bar to get. Nor do I know a good brand to buy. Any help would be great. Lets not turn this into a 4 link vs ladder bars thread I have looked into both and I want to do ladder bars, so lets just leave it at...

MD lookin good man. Those plates look flat to me. But that could jst be the pics. I got my tires on friday. :) I'll update my thread this weekend and send ya the link. For only owning my car for 3 months I feel we have made good progress. Keep up the good work. Can't wait for more pics

yeah I have the 2010 rule book, and we have not even cut a piece of tubing without reading it. And it's usually read 3 or 4 times to make sure we understand everything before we start the tube. Like the main hoop must be behind the drivers head no more than 6 inches. The hoop must be 4in above...

yeah I never intended to have a back seat. I knew I was going to build a 2 seater befor I knew what car I was going to build. And I am building sheet metal door pannels so the arm rests will be moveable that is if I even put them in. But thanks for the heads up.
