    That strap at the back of the LCA is a great idea. I have a spare LCA that I can use to show them what the issue is. There's a muffler shop here in Eagle Rock that did a great job with a complete new exhaust for little money that I'll ask first.

    The problem is that the passenger side LCA has A LOT of play between at the torsion bar adjuster, so it makes a clunking sound when you step on the brakes or accelerate. The main reason is to tighten that up. I know there's also a way to just open, tighten and reweld the bump stop plate, but I...

    I hadn't seen that reply yet - thank you so much! Luckily it's aligned now, but looks like Andy's Alignment is just q0 minutes from my house.

    That's awesome - I've been to every Spring and Fall Fling since I bought the Barracuda in 2009. Never had my car in the show section though, I usually just look for parts. There is no alignment printout sheet, haha. If you could recommend a shop that'd be great! Also a place in the area that...

    Thanks - you are probably right, but I'm still somewhat shocked that no one here will do an alignment on car that is older than 1990. It is one of the only things I don't do myself. I rebuilt the entire front suspension myself. Including making bushings for the gearbox to compensate for the...

    Gus at Lizarde Auto on Figueroa in Cypress Park/ Northeast L.A. - I've known him for like 14 years. He's across the street from a job I had back then. And he was the only one that I could find that would do an alignment on an old Mopar. I just saw your Fall Fling link - where in L.A. are you...

    He said something like it would help to get the grease between the gears, but honestly I wish he had just left it alone completely. I'm sure they're fine from the factory. I brought the car in for an alignment - not for him to mess with it. He claims that he's been wrenching on Mopars since he...

    Thanks @347Duster247 and @lead69, that's a relief! I like the 16:1 box a lot too and it's really not a noticeable difference to the 24:1 box I had before. Only that it's not that sloppy, haha.

    I installed my 16:1 PST box in May and then took the car to get an alignment, because I also changed control arms and wheels. The guy at the shop said that the gearbox was too tight out of the box. So he loosened it up to "break it in". Not sure, if that is necessary. Anyways, after I picked up...
