As far as I know, the car has never been hit. Previous alignments with the stock 9" drum system never reported any issues and the car steered well afterwards. The bushings are all new as I got a front-end rebuild kit with urethane bushings from Just Suspensions. By stock ride height, the...

The shops I've been dealing with don't have a problem with using a custom alignment spec. The problem is that they don't seem to understand the alignment procedure for an a-body even though I bring my FSM, which increases the time the car is on the rack. The only time they got the alignment...

IIRC, the 1/2° difference in caster was advised by alignment mechanics. My FSM specifies +0.25° more camber on the left (preferred camber: +0.50 L & +0.25 R),I think caster should be the same L & R too but my last alignment ended up with positive camber and negative caster and was out enough to...

I have a 1965 Barracuda that I've upgraded from 9" drums to 74 Duster disc brakes and used urethane UCA bushings from Just Suspensions. I don't have power steering. Having read up on the alignment advice here at FABO and at slantsix.org, I want to my car to have: Camber: -0.25° L / -0.25° R...

Since my polyurethane bushings still look good and my ball joint is brand new, I was going to replace the ones that came with the Mexican UCA. Since starting this topic, I've found a set of used UCAs instead so it doesn't look like I'll be trying the Mexican ones in the foreseeable future...

Due to an unfortunate lack of tightening of a slider caliper bracket bolt, I am now in need of a right-hand upper control arm. Generally, I've found that most of the UCAs for sale are pairs (left and right) so I might have to buy a pair to get a RH. However, I came across one eBay vendor...

If you look at the ends of the bars, the orientation of the holes isn't perpendicular to the bar. If you put the end links in the bar, the tops of the end links should tip inwards. If you invert the bar, the top of the end links should tip outwards. This just allows the end links to sit...

[684mulas sent me photos of his car last night. I resized and posted them for him.] 684mulas: The Addco logo on your bar looks upside-down. Did you invert the bar? Are you using the Addco links that came with the bar? Did you originally have 67-72 LCAs on your car or did you change...

I'm working on upgrading to slider disc brakes on my 1965 Barracuda. Since I bought a front-end kit from Just Suspensions, I've got the LCAs out now to change the LCA bushings. I see that both Firm Feel and AR Engineering offer LCA Reinforcement Plates. FirmFeel recommends them with a sway...

I added an Addco PN 751 (1-1/8") sway bar kit to my 65 Barracuda may years ago. My set-up is exactly like emsvitil's 64 Valiant Installation. Now that I've got the lower control arms out to replace the bushings, I noticed that the Addco sway bar tabs seem to have been pivoting on the shock...
