    Subframe Connectors, Torque Boxes & Inner Fender Braces

    Heres a set of inner fender braces I bent up and welded into my brother 69 dart. Way up out of the way, plenty of tire clearance. Waiting to see how much better it feels once all put back together/painted.

    How Shall I Suspend My Rearend?

    The ladder bar option is appealing no doubt. But a good kit will run 400-700, maybe with shocks, now add all the labor to install and the price would go up a good deal. For 80% street I would say not worth it. With alot of street use your going to likely, eventually, bend the locator bar, wear...

    How Shall I Suspend My Rearend?

    Ditto. Maybe some better rear shocks or since it's in body work make sure your wheel wells are big enough now for any tire you might plan in the future. With the Dana you'll have alot of good hard use without worry. Are your frames tied now, if not good idea too. If you had $ burning a hole...

    Hole in the frame

    That's not factory. Lol. Looks like they might have tried to get to the factory k member nut. See if that bolt will come out, pass rear that is. Maybe they gave up or did fix it. Good luck

    Make your own adjustable strut bars.

    McNoople, I understand what your saying about the increased stress at the k frame. The reinforcement there on an a body is nice to help spread it out. The strut rod doesn't really experience any lateral movement that can't be allowed for in the heim or rubber bushing. The vertical movement...

    Make your own adjustable strut bars.

    I had the 5/8 heim on hand and spacers and stuff so I just used em'. Your right they do make a 1/2 id with the 5/8 thread and in the future I'll switch to that setup just for less pieces. As far as making to sell I probably would. They'd be like 120-130 shipped but take me a couple days to...

    Make your own adjustable strut bars.

    Yep that's the one. I know not very fancy, but sufficient. No side load just fore/aft like on 4 link and ladder bar rears.

    Make your own adjustable strut bars.

    You can get them through McAmis, Bickel, Chassis Engineering. Just a generic piece. Your bars are sweet btw. Nice work.

    Make your own adjustable strut bars.

    Thanks. If you look at the 2nd pic the 2 washers just to the right of the angle grinder with the washer on the anvil. Those are the two washers I "turned" down to 1-1/8 outside diameter. They then go in front of the gold bracket and reduce the k frame hole from 1-1/8 to 5/8. Then the bolt...

    Make your own adjustable strut bars.

    I made a set of these for my brothers dart. Though I would post some pics and kind of detailed setup, pricing etc. They are made of 1" Moly with threaded adapters on each end. Complete they weigh about 60% of factory. I did something one these I didnt see on some others too. I welded nuts...
