Hey thanks for the tip Alan. I have considered all options for the rear end suspension. The springs that are on there now are really weak. There is a guy in Perth Amboy, NJ (real close) that adds a leaf and re arcs leafs. I have to consider the vehicles weight when selecting a spring weight. I...

Wow that looks really good! Nice MOD and Good Luck with it.

Haven't been on this site in quite a while. My restoration plans and the Barracuda are parked for the remainder of the year. The timing chain needs replacing and the condition of it is getting worse since I have been driving it around town as my daily driver. Had a few close calls already...

Whats up FABO? The Barracuda has been in my garage at my parents for some time now. I moved out to Woodbridge, NJ and I am in the process of obtaining another garage. Should have the car in its new home in a few weeks. I have not been on this site in a while now. I miss this site. I will be back...

Thank you. Im in Stewartsville. Yeah those shackles came on the car when I bought her, they are those goofy shackles with a million holes in em... they would have been replaced a while ago but it'll sag way too much. I'm waiting to swap them when I swap for MP or ESPO springs. I obtained a pair...

Reinstalled the new alternator Monday and that solved nothing. This might be a good tip for you (common sence really). While running the engine that high pitch noise wasnt coming from the alternator yet below it. I use a 3 ft. cut of old AC hose, put one end to my ear and poked around the engine...

Happy Fathers Day All! Posting today because yeaterday I had a problem with my alternator. After about 5 minutes of warm up the brushes on the back of the alternator would make such a high pitch whisle. Now mind you this is a referbished alternator from Napa, an identical match to the one I took...

Woke up this morning to a UPS truck try to make it down my slope of a driveway. "Got some new tires for ya" WOW I ordered these on Monday with standard shipping. (2) 15"X6" Cragar S/S fitted with 215/60/15 and (2) 15"X7" Cragar S/S standard offset with 255/60/15. Looking at the tire size in the...

Awesome cant wait to take a look at it too. Have a safe trip home fella!

Thanks for the advice about the wheels. With hours of thought and web surfing I've decided to stick with the Cragar S/S wheels. Reason being that I can obtain 15X6 and 15X7's from Newstalgia in small bolt pattern. Keeping the drum brakes all around is something that I can live with... the car...

Here's a photo under the Barracuda. This was taken on the drivers side infront of the rear tire. Up top is the sub-frame connecter bracket and to the right is where the leaf spring mount is mounted. I left this alone until I can get the car up in the air to repair it. Just want to get a little...

Thanks fellas. Made the list today on paper and the price total for everything threw me from my seat. It was to be expected. Nobody said this was an "easy on your wallet" hobby, but I'm dedicated. Did some creeping today under the Barracuda snooping around looking for anything that might be...

Hello ladies and gentlemen, boy's and girl's. I have been a member of FABO for a little over a year now and have decided start my own Member Restoration Thread. There are a lot of Awesome Mopar's on this website, a lot of good ideas, helpful tricks and cool people. Looking over the Restoration...

Nice project! BB Dusters are awesome! I have a question, something I am planning to do Winter of 2009. Traction related. How much are you narrowing that 8 3/4? What are some of your plans for suspension out back? I've been thinking of re-doing the suspension out back on my 68' 440 Cuda'...
