Just cut the bars with a cut off wheel or a torch. they come out real easy that way :)

Why not just go with 8" bolts, and then cut off what you don't need. I believe if your running a 8 3/4 Rear, they'll be 3" (give or take inside measurement).

Sorry, left out. I looked at the Tool set too, tried to make my own out of 2 1/2" pipe, and threaded rod from Home Depot. I think I spent $5.00 Dollars for materials, and after one bushing, that's when I decided to take the parts down the street and let someone with the tools, presses, and...

My local shop charged me $75.00 Dollars to replace both Upper Control Arm bushings, and the LCA. I bought the MOOG Bushings at Autozone, the front end is not and tight now :)

Anyone know what the ratio is for the 68' Dart Power Steering box. Seems alittle slow, and was thinking about trying to update to something with alittle faster response and tighter radius. The /6 is pulled, and 440 going in, so not sure if this makes much difference. also want to update...

Thanks.....Nice info...

What year Steering columns (as models - Scamp, Swinger, Duster, Demon, Etc.) will work in a 68' Dart with Power Steering? Thanks :wav:

I'm doing the same to the 68', putting a floor shifter and console in. She currently has the Auto shifter on the Column, so I was wondering how hard is to take the shifter out, or would it be better to just try and find a new power steering column without the shifter? Thanks

Anyone have any suggestions, pictures, or recommended packages for converting a 68' Dart from a Auto Column to a Floor Shifter. I'm dumping the original bench (which is still in good shape if someone is looking for a resto), Throwing in buckets, and a nice shifter. I'd be interested in reading...

Wow, just checked out your Barracuda resto, man that is some sweet work.

Guys, Read the Tech Article, and took a stab at it. Wanted to share my experience. I bought a 10' length of 2 x 3 x .120 (about 1/8") steel for $50.00. The bough a 12" of 1 Inch Square Steel Tube for $2.00. A SAFETY NOTE, PLEASE, PLEASE WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN YOU WORKING THE METAL...

Thanks, this is what I was looking for :)

thanks, that helps with the front..

Does anyone have dimensions, or pictures/diagrams for a A Body Torque boxes? I'm trying to tie together the 68' Dart. She's a /6 today, and a 440 tomorrow. I already have the frame connectors fab'd, but wanted to make sure I do all the chasis mods at the same time, and not have to try and...

This was a pretty good graph, it helped me. So I'm throwing it out there in case anyone else was interested.

Anyone know where I could get a Frame Chart for a 68' Dart? Thanks

I'm planning on welding in 2x3 Steel as Frame Connectors. These will be going in a 68' Dart, 111" Wheelbase. The connectors will be 53" long, and weld in directly to the Trans-Cross Member, and a rear Rails. I'll post some more pictures as I start the project.

I'm exploring rerouting my 68' Dart front brake lines through the frame using those "Through the frame" connectors. I started to replace my front brake lines, but the connectors are so rusted they simply stripped. Even a vice grip won't break them loose. So, I'm afraid my only course of...

Does anyone know what are the recommended width tires for the street? I'll go ahead and date myself here :), I remember the days of the 50's and 60's times, which could fit a standard rim. Sorry, actually the 50's took a wider Rim. So do they still have these wider tires and Rims available...

Swapping a 7.25 with a Ford 8.8. Does anyone know how far the spring rests have to move between the two Rears. Thanks Guys and Gals, Pat

Just a follow on thought..... Will a Ram or Dakota Truck Spindle work, they would definitely be stong enough :)

OK Guys, I've come to the masters....Does anyone know what late model Spindles will work on a 68' Dart? Trying to upgrade the 9" drums to Disc. The hardest part has been trying to find Spindles. I have been everywhere in my local area, and the internet trying to find Spindles. From the...

Really appreciate all the advice. I'm swapping the brakes from the 9" drums to 74' Disc spindles, and looking at either a Wilwood or Baer 11" kit, since the vehicles doesn't have Power Brakes.

Thanks, great info... Don't know if you could advise, but do you think this would hold together with a 360 in front of it? Thanks.... Pat

Just curious if anyone might be able to tell me from the picture what Rear Dif I have in my 68' Dart. It's a 225 /6, so I'm suspecting it's a 7 1/4, but would like to defer to the experts here. Thanks.... Pat

My little 8) should be a V8.... :)

Will Upper Control Arms from a 69 Dart (V8) fit a 68? I've attached a photo, but don't know if it will help...

You guys ROCK! Just a quick question. Have a 68 Dart, 42,000 original miles. I'm dropping a 360 in, replacing the 225 /6. Because I'm having such a hard time locating spindles to upgrade the 9" drums, I was planning on trying the wilwood upgrade kits. My question, will the 9" drum...

What Year and Models R&P parts would bolt into a 68 Dart? Thanks

Thanks for the tip, just called Unisteer. I'll post an update when I talk to them about a package for my 68 Dart.
