    Strut rod washers.... correct way to use.

    My .02 on this. I just went through this on my car. I got the Mogg replacement bushings with new washers. I thought it was wierd to install them with cup facing inward toward the bushing. So I installed them with the cup outward. My friend has a ‘67 Cuda that’s untouched. I noticed the washers...

    Front A body suspension help please

    A little update on my setup and maybe it will help someone searching for answers. I want to say to thank you for the advice in this thread! I replaced all of the bushings in the front end, tie rod ends, idler arm and plated the lower arms. I also installed 1.03 torsion bars and the small poly...

    1.14" Sway Away Torsion Bars

    How do like the ride with this t bar and shock combo? I just replaced my stock t bars with the 1.03’s and noticed a huge improvement in the ride (17in wheels/tires). I still have kyb’s that came with it and will upgrading to Bilsteins when $$ is available for it. I’m fighting worn out rear...

    Poor suspension

    I think this is your problem because I am having the same problem with my car. In process of new Tbar install, right now. I can’t wait to get it finished up so I can drive it.

    Front A body suspension help please

    Ok that makes sense. As far as lifting a wheel...you've never seen me drive!! Lol That little 273/4spd combo moves pretty good for what it is. I have the poly stops in the garage. I'll install them when I change bushings

    Front A body suspension help please

    Thanks for the responses! It's the car in my avatar. 235/45/17 front tires. I have the printout of the specs they did at home. I adjusted the torisons to a 25in fender opening height. After the alignment it sat gasser style. The front had raised up to 29.5! It was all over the place. I've lower...

    Thank you for that! I'm reading this thread because I just my 64 Valiant running and driving. It drives horrible!! Very rough, I feel every bump in the road through the floor. I had the alignment done and they sucked at it. It's all over the road. I need to replace the older arm and the pitman...

    Schwartz Performance G-Machine Chassis

    I'd try! Lol I bet it's a ton of work but I think it would be well worth it. I hear you on the RMS stuff. That's my long term plan along my 5.7 hemi and a 6spd. That's a little more budget friendly

    Schwartz Performance G-Machine Chassis

    I would do it in a heart beat if I could swing it! '68 Dart on that chassis with a hellcat engine and a 6spd! My dream car! Enough power to make me wet my pants and enough handling to play with vettes!

    Dr. Diff 1/2" offset hangers on early A-body?

    I have been searching. Lol. This is my current setup 17x8 Bullet wheels. 235/45/17 front and 245/45/17 rear. I'm going to buy new wheels and the rears will be a 0 offset 17x8. I'm trying to figure the offset shackle thing, so when I install my 8.8 I don't end up doing anything twice. I'm...

    Dr. Diff 1/2" offset hangers on early A-body?

    Nice! I'm looking for a little bit of tire to spring clearance. I have 245's on it and want to go to 255 maybe 275. I have clearance everywhere but the spring.

    Offset shackles/hangers

    Does anyone know if that kit or any offset kit will work for an early A?

    Offset shackles/hangers

    I would think you would have to move the spring perchs to match the new spring location. Maybe that's the welding they're talking about

    Moog offset uca bushings

    Rustyswinger...question for you. When you bought your offset bushings, was there one or two per box? I ask because I'm doing my front and only got one per box. Images show 2 per box. Now I have to wait for some more to finish it

    Any words of wisdom before I start my front end rebuild?

    Lmao!!! That's pretty much what happened! :rofl: I'm bummed because I bought everything so I could bust out the front disc/rebuild as fast as possible in one shot. That's not happening now. Story of my life! Lol

    Any words of wisdom before I start my front end rebuild?

    I searched and came across this thread looking for info on the moog k7103 bushings. I ordered 2 sets off of amazon. I started working on the arms when I opened the boxes and there was only 1 bushing per box. Is that right? Every image I find of them shows 2 per box. I'm trying to find the answer...

    Hemidenny K member club?

    Ok. I am trying to figure out how to get big brakes on the cheap. Cody's setup sounds like the cheapest way. I have the 70's mustang hubs already. I was wondering if there is an adaptor needed for the cobra caliper to bolt to the M2 dropped spindle. The Dr Diff uses an adaptor for the caliper to...

    Hemidenny K member club?

    Does the caliper bolt straight on to the spindle or is a bracket needed? You say 1996....I'm going to assume you are talking about the cobra model..correct?

    Hemidenny K member club?

    After reading this thread and other members threads with HDK's.... I think it would be unjust not to put one in my '68 Dart convert. For what I want out of the car this is the only way to go. It will be sometime down the road ( life and other projects first). I have been out if the loop for a...
