    Rear sway bar?

    You should be fine without a rear bar. I would do frame rail connectors with a 440. Nice ride.

    I have a set of 1" torsion bars been on a dart

    I would imagine they are just fine. There are a tons of cars running around with 40+ year old t-bars. How well did the chrome hold up?

    highway vibration

    Could be torque converter. How old it the harmonic balancer? After time the rubber gives out and the can cause a vibration. I had that problem with the 360 I had in my 67 cuda. A new one solved the problem.

    Tie Rod Ends

    I ran the B bodies (11/16" dia,) on my 67 Cuda and did not have to shorten center tube. I also ran the calipers on the front with a sway bar without issue, so, without a sway bar there is no reason to run them on the back.

    Sway bars?

    Looks OK but the rear bar seems to be a bit large. I run a 1.25" front and .75" rear and it handles very well. I think having a 1" up front and .75" out back that the back will be too stiff and cause handling problems.

    A Body front suspension clarification

    The upgrade was for all disk brake cars not just the V8's. Your car being drum brakes should be small bolt pattern. So you need the upper control arms, spindle and brake components from a 73+ disk brake A body. You will probably also want to change the rearend out to big bolt pattern, also...

    V-8 Steering Link

    what is the center link from? Is it a pre 67 piece? front ends got wider in 67 so if it a 67 or newr it will be a little longer.

    NEW torn Dust boot, Replacements??

    Sorry Superdart, I can't find them. After moving I can't find anything. I bought my poly boots from http://www.prothane.com/ through Quickor Suspension , there are places in your area if you can't find one some where else.

    I am not sure, but these are moog. I would think they were all the same.

    NEW torn Dust boot, Replacements??

    How soon do you need one? I can look this weekend and see if I kept the ones from my suspension rebuild since I switched to poly boots, so I have unused ones some where.

    Which kit?

    How much of the 73+ frontend do you have? If you have all the components than the super kit for 73+ will work as long as it has the idler and pitman arm and you have the center link and upper control arms from the swap frontend.

    It is the first picture of bars in the A body section. Nice looking Valiant, my next project will be a 64-65 2 door sedan.

    SWAY bar from 67-72

    The front of the early A bodies is not as wide as the 67-72 so the bar will not fit but the did have swaybars on the 66 formula S barracudas so if you can find the bar will work. The other option is to have one made. Check Firm Feel to see if the make one for your application...

    Torsion bars for stock suspension rebuild

    Having the rear bar stiffer then the front causes the inside rear tire to lift in a tight corner under hard acceleration. I have had this happen. Replaced bar one more matched to the front bar and that solved the problem. The way mine is setup now they were purchased as a matched set for my...

    Torsion bars for stock suspension rebuild

    Very little suspension travel, almost no leaning in the corners. I have Quickor 1.25" front and 3/4" rear, probably more than is needed for the street but damn it handles like a slot car. Either Hellwig or Addco bars are fine. do you plan on doing a rear bar. If you do and buy a 1 1/8" for the...

    Torsion bars for stock suspension rebuild

    Go for the .890's and a swaybar, that will make for a good street car.

    Torsion bars for stock suspension rebuild

    The.920's will be stiffer, I would stay with the original bars unless you want a firmer ride. Not knowing what is in your 69 cuda engine and suspension wise i would guess you have .870 bars and those are available. I have .890 bars (heavy duty suspension) in my 67 with KYB gas shocks and a...

    Sway Bar Question?

    The bar on 73 up goes through the K-frame so it should not hang down at all.
