guess I should have said "put a shim in the front leaf spring mount to align the rear"

shim in the front spring mount???

that front bar made a big difference, now try one on the back as well. corners FLAT.

Shorten the bolt and sleeve until the bar is level

I run tubular uca. One thing ive noticed is the camber doesn't change nearly as many degrees as it did with the original arms from ride height to wheel off the ground.

1.03" t bars, stock front sway bar with urethane bushings (because I cant make the new 1.125" bar fit right yet) one extra full leaf in the rear with 7/8" rear sway bar and Bilstiens all round. 67 FB 340 Cuda rides stiffer than stock but corners flat. Front will under steer when pushed because...

I think only the hemi and maybe the 440x6 B bodies got the torque boxes. Never heard of an A body. Maybe the 68 hemi racers.

I put my frame connectors in on leveled jack stands. I put the torque boxes in on the rotisserie. Nothing changed with the t box install... oh ya the car was a shell.

Cheers bro!✌steam boilers also on my resume also.

Cross member to socket isnt where the grease goes. Im a Steel Mill Industrial Mechanic. We used anti seize on everything to avoid rust seizing parts. Works for me.

I use anti seize. Never had a problem.

if not using a little bit of grease makes things easier.....go with it!!

Thanks, I realize the trans up 5* is not the best but I have an aftermarket 5 speed trans and it is very close to the floor now. If I cut the tunnel bigger I wont get the stock console over it. My thinking is split the difference kinda without inducing a vibration cruising but making everything...

I'm asking for opinions on whether I need to change my pinion angle and how much. I measure the trans 5* down and the pinion 5* up. I'm thinking under heavy load that the pinion angle would be too high. I've got a 7 leaf rear springs with the top and the added leaf that are full length. I don't...

pins pulled to set anything even toe,,,you'll have to set caster and camber together because one will probably effect the other and you'll have to go back and forth. Get you're camber close and then go after caster. bounce the chassis after each change to settle it. also the rears should be at...

16;1 Flaming River with 205-14's, 3 1/2* caster,,,I wouldn't go with any slower of a box. No problems.

I had to fab everything but the tabs. I used heavier that original gauge steel. Tabs were spot welded in, now welded in solid. Everything I could make bigger or more reinforced I did. Fingers crossed, and inspect every spring.

My poly bushings added a fair amount of harshness I'd hate to feel a solid bushing on the street.

The tabs seam less that perfect but them and the top of the shock brackets were the only things left on my Canadian Fish once I got the inner fenders off. The car had only seen the winter from '67-'76. They had already been hack repaired once in the 70's. I got a surprise!!! I didn't know FABO...

just checked and reset my Barracuda's alignment with this gauge... works great and has payed for itself over and over. Also it gets set to MY specs.

proof right there,,,,"You can't weld to Rust"!!!

I run my 340 with the rad full to the top and an overflow tank half full. Engine gets to temp and overflow tank level rises about an inch when it cools the fluid is sucked back into the rad. Always full. Put air into each cylinder with the valves closed one at a time and watch for bubbles in the...

doesn't look OE cause it's not painted "Lowes return counter,,,"I don't like this colour" ,,,"but this can is empty"!!!

bought my PST super kit in 2010, $606, installed it in 2013 (restoration),, car hasn't turned a wheel yet, up on jack stands, noticed the upper ball joint boot has blown completely out, (split wide open) called them, no response. Chinese rubber??? don't know. Energy Suspension poly boots on the way.

because the slipper joint between the steering box and the column is a misalignment joint and not a support bearing

use a puller, or make one,,in my younger days I pulled one off by hand while in the car and nearly broke my nose when she came off. learned that lesson the hard way. with a puller they come off easy.

does your look like mine did?,, It had a bit of flex in it. rebuilt the whole damn thing.

I'm not sure why you think the roller bearing might lock up. The unsealed bicycle type bearing that was in my column was getting crunchy and tighter as it was failing. The roller I installed is sealed on both sides to keep the grease in, lightly pressed into the plastic collar and is a slip fit...

67 manual steer Barracuda. I replaced the old broken bearing with a common inexpensive double rubber seal roller bearing. remove column and the old bearing, save the collar with the set screws. the column has to be stripped apart from the top used a hole saw the size of the OD of the new bearing...
