You can run the Schumacher Headers with your factory power steering setup. '67-72 A-Body Products

Yup... This is great advice on how to make your car totally drive-able on the cheap and very close to proper alignment in most cases. I did my '78 Street van this way a couple of years ago after putting new wheels and tires on it, and it drives so good that I never bothered to take it in to be...

Well, Here's a photo of mine from yesterday. I had installed the 1.03 torsion bars with the LCAs hanging down and in this photo, the adjusters are all the way loose. The rear has brand new ESPO plus 1 inch 6 leaf springs in it and the tires are 295/50/15, 26" tall. I think it sits a little high...

Whatever the final outcome is, I would like to see the proper method for installing these listed here in this thread before it fizzles out. I have my new set of torsion bars in the car now but it's still up on jack stands and I would like to make sure it's correctly installed sooner rather than...

2 pages, would be great if @PST could chime in as to the proper install method, just to confirm. :thumbsup:

I heard that they use those same numbers as an easy cross-reference to find what you need. I built my entire front end from the XRF parts and they really look like nice, quality parts. The castings are different compared to moog

Many know that Moog idler arms and other pieces have been having high failure rates. There has been threads discussing that topic... Anyways, I already have my entire front end rebuilt with the hi-quality XRF brand parts, made in Michigan. I was searching for parts for another project car and...

Curious minds want to know!

Another vote here for XRF. Really good quality parts! Use the same part #s as Moog for your search on their website.

Well, I just completed replacing the bushings in my lower control arm. I followed the instructions from this article in HOT ROD MAGAZINE online and it went flawlessly. The only thing I did differently from the article was that instead of welding the washer to the bushing shell, I inserted the...

I like them on my '67 notch!

Please look at this thread and the photos: DANGEROUS PRODUCT = Moog Ball Joints Moog has been going downhill for a while!

I order all new XRF Parts for my Barracuda after lots of research and seeing so many FAILED MOOG PARTS (some resulting in bad accidents), but haven't installed them yet. The quality looks top-notch! They use the same #s as Moog, just preceded with "XRF". XRF Chassis | Automotive and Heavy Duty...

As far as the XRF Lower Ball Joints for 67-72 A body goes, MIbearings.com no longer stocks them and they called XRF today, who said they no longer plan to make them. I am however ordering the rest of my steering parts from them today. Hoping I can find some good lowers for my car and avoid the...

I'm all over it!!! Maybe I will end up putting the Barracuda and a trailer and towing it to the show with my groovy new van!

Not yet but I am ready to rebuild my front suspension shortly now. New K-member, reinforced, disc brakes, etc. I have the whole K-member assembly out of the car right now and I was looking up info and came back across this thread, which helped!

Just wanted to say thanks for posting that info, Matt!

Thanks Matt, that makes sense!

Matt, are these the correct part #s then for the 67-69 Barracudas? I have a 67 and want to order some but they don't list what they actually fit. Thanks! -Doug

I just put 4 new Bilsteins in my 67 notch along with new 1.03" torsion bars from PST and I am really happy with the way it sits and rides...

Good info!

Is there a specific part # for the Abody Moog rubber kit? I will be doing mine fairly soon.

Thank you!

Which particular Bilsteins would you guys recommend? I have looked a little but there seems to a sea of options and pricing ranges. I need front and rear shocks for my '67 notch.

Just found my old invoice and it is that one... Part # 30305 $39.95

I think it's the second one down on the page. GM/pinto...3/4" smooth on one end to weld to the steering shaft and 36 teeth on the steering box end. But check the number of teeth on your steering box to be sure!

I ordered mine from Smiley's Racing. $39.00 and it worked great! Painted it black. Saved some money. http://www.smileysracing.com/shopping/productDetails.aspx?i=6711&c=1528

OK, how about some links to the Bilstein shocks for A bodies... Need something new for my 67 but seems like there is a sea of choices. Don't wanna just take a stab in the dark if I can avoid it :) Want something for mainly road driving, performance oriented though.

Bob, you must be talking about Kremer Spring, no??? They are about 3 miles from me. Let me know how it goes as I will probably need to do the the same at some point.

I've got a set of almost new air shocks for cheap if you want a quick fix for now and I am also in Minnesota ( Twin Cities). PM me if ya want more info. Your profile looks like you are from Eagan.... only a couple miles from me
