On my 73 dart, I think im gonna run a lynx rear end kit and a mini tub. I want some wider rear tires, but still want to be able to drive it on the street. I am a little worried about exaust though, do i have room? I will be replacing the fuuel tank to a fuel cell (like the way it looks), plus I...

If I wanted to skip a front K member all together and just get a full chassis....anyone know of anyone that makes one? I been looking at the Art Morrison catalog, but no mopar applications.... After buying a new front end, doing a 4 link or whatever in the rear, sub frame connectors.....maybe an...

I want air ride on my setup to, so i can raise and lower it. HOWEVER. just heard back from Bill at RMS and he points out his opinion and experience with it...has me thinking twice now. " On Air Ride, we discontinued the option in 2008 due to it being terribly unreliable. The ride quality is...

Looking forward to that HD. Hope you don't take offense to this post, just opened it up to get some dialog going.

Poison, I value ur comments and opinion. Thanks much bud

Wow. I go to bed and this post explodes with information and opinion. Thanks to all. Denny, thanks for chiming in, hope you don't take this as putting down your product or anything, I know we have chatted quite a bit through PM. @poison, the 73 K I just to like the limitations of it. 1 the...

anyone know about putting viper calipers on either? Id like to run those, purely for performance reasons i assure you...

Ok guys. Here is the run down. I am going to put a hemi 5.7 into the dart. I don't want to loser power steering, i would like to lose the Tbars for more room, and would like power rack. I have $4500 ready to be spent. I want honest to god true opinions on what everyone thinks and would do. I...

I would be too, for $4500 basic setup. Just to much cash for me.

I been talking to HemiDenny for over a year, great guy. Quick at getting back to you and has lots of pictures. I have read lots on the forum about him, no first had experience about his product, but looks and sound great. Haven't heard a bad review yet. Also, he is currently working to develope...

Never thought i'd hear this forum speak like this. Keep hp low, that's crazy talk... Im doing at least 500hp, period. Say what you will. My car, my choice. Appreciate the info and feedback. im leaving the thread now.

Honestly, I kinda wanna know to, that "ive got that beast caged....all i gotta do is open the door and let it out", dont mean I have to.

......HP is never money badly spent. I dunno if i'll never race it. But I want to be able to take it out on the roads when weather is good. Rest of car is actually pretty decent, once I finish the few things I need to. I don't think 500hp is unreasonable, 700 might be, but 500 should be doable.

Good point. I honestly (and my reasoning from a safety point is flawed)...I was thinking I need a cage just to make the damn car strong enough to handle the HP. If i can get away with out a cage, so be it... As far as track, ya that would get me kicked out for sure..ha. As far as 700hp on the...

Good points and info. Thanks much. Ink, Why do you think a 700hp car is not street legal? practical and gas efficient no, but street illegal? There are production street legal cars that have more then that. Crap the viper has 500hp last time I checked....granted that car is build w the structure...

I am goint to be stuffing an up to 700hp hemi into a daily driver, i use that term loosely as I won't be driving it every single day, but a good portion. With that much HP, I don't think having just subframe connectors will cut it. I don't want a nasco/drag style roll cage, looks ugly and...

now that I think about it, its kinda a DRRR moment. Of coarse you want the doors to close before your beef up the frame and essentially "lock" it into position. Dunno what I was thinking....still a little tired of from all the OT i am working I suppose.

OH, guess i had that one backwards. Thanks for the heads up

well i guess that is good news, better to be a door and window, then frame. I know rear glass is a real pain to roll up, almost kinda forcing/grinding...nothing makes sound of breaking yet. But I guess complete rebuild and adjustment would be good, considering I want power windows. I'll adjust...

mind you that is without the weather stripping, seems to exasperate the issue.

best I could do for pics.

ya, ultimately it will be painted, so ya. Redoing hinges and beefing it up might as well be added to the list, regardless. Plus, I plan on shaving the door handles and doing the poplock setup.

from memory here, I want to say that with out forcing it to close, i wanna say there was a gap on the top of the window....that would lead me to believe hinges, yes?

Ya, i'll try to get pics up. I am actually at work right now, pulling a double shift. So I won't be home till about 11pm Mountain Time.. Thanks for the help so far, I'll try to get pics up.

with that being said, hinges would be easy compared to frame shop and cheaper... however with my plans for new k member, subframe connectors, and hemi...may be prudent at some point to get it on a rack and get her straight as can be. for now thought I need a fix

the door fit is off, like when you go to close it, it is lower then it should be, the catch is lower then the striker ?bar? on the striker panel...gotta kinda push it hard and it will close... as far as hinges, i did try to lift up on it, seems firm.

So I was messing with the dart the other day, and noticed when I tried to close my passenger door, the glass was overlapping the rear glass by about an inch at the top...so if i slammed the door, i woulda shattered glass. As far as I know this car was not wrecked, didn't notice this before I...

eh, thats not true from what I see. I am going to be making my own subframes out of square tubing, and it would be easy enough to put lenghth of conduit inside of that. As far as the leaking and stuff, ya, thats a valid point. Service would require disconnecting and pulling out entire lenghts...

Starting to subframe the dart, figured " why not run fuel and brake lines through Frame" Has anyone done this? Any issues? I think it would clean up the bottom nicely And protect the lines...

Thanks for the info. Ya, I can drop the engine and tranny in if needed. They are just on stands.
