The "Quick Ratio " arms were intended to go on a standard ratio box. Also they were initially intended to be used on "E/B" body cars. Im sure that is why there is some clearance issues with "A" body cars. If you install one of the quick pitman arms on a 16-1 box the actual ratio at the wheels is...

Air shocks in a past life .

Post pictures and someone here will be able to help.

I think Moog is the only source for the offset bushings. also shorten the right side strut about 3/8" to gain some positive castor. Toe Out for dirt cars. 3/8-1/2"

So do as indicated above.. washers/spacers to lengthen right side along with offset upper bushings if more is needed. on left side grind mounting pads on balljoint/spindle to gain some along with offset upper bushings .

The double shear is always better but some times not practical. That said there are a lot of dirt track race cars out there that use the bump steer spacers. Dirt tracks are not known to be the smoothest surface to race on. I have been on tracks that resemble a freshly plowed corn field and the...

The biggest issue with this is it is setup for a 5/8" rod end. You would need to find a GM (80 malibu) inner tie rod (LH thread) and the correct length swedge tube .. Look in speedway motors oval track section.

FYI some Aspen/Volare cars had 11/16 tie rod assy. got my stuff new from rock auto about 50$ for sleeves and tierods

Yes very likely it would have the large uppers..

So if my parts manuals are correct. The drum brake and disc brake lower ball joints are the same on the 73 and newer A bodies. I have a bad left lower on my disc brake car and I have a pair of drum brake assemblies laying here. I’m going to take one apart and see if it fits. UPDATE. Yes they...

i ordered a rebuilt power steering gear for my 73 dart dirt track car from rock auto and this is what I received. Have not seen one of these before. It looks like it will bolt up but not sure where the return line hooks up. Was wondering if it is one of the new “borgeson” boxes? Anyone know...

Shim your steering box. a washer under the bottom bolt will rise the pitman. washer under top bolt will lower pitman.

Find a extra set of leaf springs and make your own spring pack. You can even use leafs from other models if you keep your main spring.

Loaded question. THIS IS ONLY MY OPINION--- so for me the main reason for going aftermarket would be to be able to get better geometry. So the adjustable uppers is what I would look into. that said you can usually get decent caster and camber with the stock uppers and offset bushings.

I have a 16-1 manual in my feather duster 360-4sp. 225-50-15 tires around 3deg castor. I did have a "grant" tuff wheel that is about 13.5" diam it was a little stiff under 5mph but fine above 20mph. I changed the steering wheel back to a stock one that is around 16" i think. that helped the...

As far as oil pan clearance goes you probably have some type of adaptor motor mounts in there. you can maybe shim the mounts if pre 72 biskit type but if it was my car I would custom shape the pan with a ballpeen hammer and touch up the paint.

You have the 73 up steering link so my best guess is you would need the K772 size uppers and 73 up disc brake lowers, idler.tierods and pitman arm.

All daks I have owned were rack and pinion

so messure from ground to center of wheel well arch. then adjust front torsion bars so that side to side is even. example if you raise left front it will raise left rear but lower right rear. after you get the stance the way you want it get the front end aligned.

There is a nut on the top of the box that locks a allen set screw. hold the set screw from turning and loosen the lock nut a turn then turn the set screw in a half a turn. see if that helps the slop. if so make sure you can turn the wheel from lock to lock with no tight spots. if you can and you...

The coupler are known to wear and cause slop. Just have someone lightly turn the steering wheel back and fore and whatch where the slop is.

couple of pictures.

There was a old MooG kit to do this. I scored a couple off ebay 3-4 years ago. Kit part number was K-7009.. I think I paid 10$ each plus shipping.. I did have to machine the Idler arm I used to provide cups/location for the bearings not hard to do. been using one on my dirt track car for 3...

From what I've read there is a interface controller available on eBay that allows you to use the power unit from s Saturn Veu . Sounds like a good solution and assist rate is adjustable. First look up the controller as it tells you what ,"motor" to get.

Sorry to hijack your thread ...but are you saying the shumacker adaptor mounts move the engine back an inch? and is this the 73 up /6 K to small block? thanks.

I use the landrum equiv on my dirt car. check with speedway motors. or summit racing I think summit dose free shipping over 99$. I don't think the little extra front segment lenghth will cause any problems. they come with front bushing for 5/8" bolt and I believe use a 1" bushing in the rear...

I rebuilt a pump and it acted like that. I think one of the parts inside is 180deg out. Return the pump for a different one. I think that will fix your problem.

If you have the 73 up disk brake uppers moog k772 type this will work nicely. http://static.speedwaymotors.com/RS/SR/Product/91082160_L.jpg

If your doing a 73 up disc brake swap yes you need the big ball joint uppers,disc brake spindles and disc brake lower ball joints it will all bolt on. You will need the proper bolts to bolt on the lower ball joints.

A spring is a spring wether torsion,coil or leaf. that said if you liked the swaybar before for sure continue to use one. Personally I would not drive a older muscle car for long without sway bars.
