Funny Funny I have factory manifolds too.

I know most people are against them in a mopar. When I was just getting into cars the were the thing to have. They may not be that effective, but I love the look of them. I have a set I bought from Napa in the 80s, i was going to clean them up, and put the back on my car jus for the look, and if...

push the bar through the rear mounting sleeve, and just get it to start on the LCA sleeve, place a C clamp across the LCA and the torsion bar adjuster, now when you tighten the clamp you rotate the bar. Now you can watch the rear bar sleeve, and tighten the clamp to line the bar up. They are...

With the upper ball joint and shock loose use a c clamp between the LCA and tensioner arm to rotate the torsion bar into position. you can watch the back mount to see when you are lined up, use your mallet to drive the bar into place, this has worked for me in the past.

Loosened all bolts and retightened, turned torsion bars up a little. Does not bottom out anymore, a lot better ride. Will still replace shocks and tires, but ride is a lot better now that I am on the suspension. Thanks for all the comments and help.

thank you, I will try that as well.

I am going to loosen all the front end bolts and retighten, raise the ride height a little, and buy new front shocks. Then we will see how it rides.

ok, maybe new bars?

I will try new shocks and see if that makes a difference. thanks for all you help.

shock are 20 years old, wouldn't new bars make it stiffer?

2.5" pipes all rubber front end, when I bought them they were called HD, redline tires, bought them used. The whole front end seems bottoms out when I hit a bump, I have the ride height a little taller in the front.

has not been sitting on tires long, on a smooth road tires feel fine, just takes bumps and dips in the road real hard.

no engine strap, newer Bias ply from Coker, stock /6 bars have always been on car, 6 leaf springs from JC Whitney maybe 10-12 years ago, TTI step headers, recently installed Summit exhaust kit for Abodies no rubbing, a lot stiffer than older mopars I have rode in

Ok, new tires, and shocks. These were my next 2 things to change. Would a stock shock be good or are there better shocks out there for a smooth ride?

I do have Schumacher motor mounts, I Know they use poly, that cannot help either.

I will loosen the front end and retighten with a load on the suspension. Tires are 14" E7014 bias ply tires. I know they are not the best for the ride, but it should not be this rough a ride. It moves freely when I push up and down on the car. Will new shocks make a big difference in the ride...

I finally after 15 years have the dart road worthy. I have put about 50 miles on it this month, the main problem is the ride. It is like riding in a train car going down the tracks. I have installed all new ball joints, tie-rod ends, idler am, and pitman arm all stock replacements. The shocks...

The colum is not junk. Pull the colum from the car put it in a vise and pull the bottom of the shaft out far enough to line up the two holes in the center of the shaft. once the two holes are lined up, you can insert a brass pin through the two holes. In case of an accident the brass pin will...

instead of welding, I would drill two small holes and insert brass pins or tacks. That way you have the length you need, and it still collapses as intended.

I have one in a dart, I run stock steel rims with 235 60 14 tire. and have enough room to go with a bit wider tire if I wanted to.

It Looks To Me That You Need To Slow Your Wire Speed Down. Or Increase Your Voltage. The Weld Probobaly Penetrated. But To Acheive The Look You Want You Need A Little More Heat Or Less Wire.

I Had The Same Problem. What I Did Was Cut The All The Rust Out, Cut A Few Pieces Of Metal And Built A Box Around The Whole Frame Where The Shackle Mount Mounts. Use The Shackle Mount As A Template To Drill The Two Holes To Bolt To Frame. If You Have A Welder And A Little Welding Ability You Can...

I Think Jc Whitney Sells A Set Of Xhd 6 Leaf Springs

What You Can Do Is Find Another Column. Or, The Column Is Collapsable. Which Means That You Can Disassemble It, Once You Have The Shaft Out Youll See That It Has Two Small Holes With Plastic In Serts In It. You Can Drill These Out. Then Gently Tap The Shaft To Extend It To The Desired Length...

I RECENTLY PICKED UP THE FULL FRONT DISC SETUP OFF OF A 75 DART FOR 75 DOLLARS. I GOT THE SPINDLES, ROTORS, CALIPERS, UPPER CONTROL ARMS, LOWER CONTROL ARMS, AND MASTER CYLINDER THIS IS A MANUAL SETUP. WHICH I HOPE WILL BE FINE I WANT TO SAVE ROOM BY NOT HAVING A BOOSTER IN THE COMPARTMENT. THE...
