    Rear Independent Suspension? Anyone?

    As usual, I've got another one for ya'll. I might be inheriting a 90's model BMW 7-Series & got to thinking: I wonder how an Independent Rear End (IRE) would fare on an A-Body. I'm sure that the BMW Rear is just a playground for all kinds of compatibility issues, but maybe it...or an IRE...

    'Nother one of my Nutty Steering Ideas'

    Since I've found that there are some later (like 1990s & up) parts that swap onto A-Bodies pretty well (such as the smaller, lightweight starters from an Intrepid, a Jeep Rear end for Rear Discs, or a Denso Alternator (w/ minimal mods) or even a GM HEI distributor) I thought about the topic of...

    Manual Steering Markings, S/N ?

    Anyone know if there are any markings or numbering on a Manual Steering Box which will tell you which one/ratio you have? I am gonna look at a box in a junk yard, but don't think the car in question has a steering wheel - but I can get into the engine compartment. Tanks....

    M-Body Steering Boxes?

    What's Needed to Go From PwrSteer -to- Manual Steer?

    As we all know, nothing just 'swaps =n= bolts' right in w/ our beloved Mopars. So, what is needed to go from Power Steering to Manual? My car is a 1968 Barracuda Convertible: 318/4spd. FWIW, I just converted the car over to post-1973 Disc brakes & Upgraded the Front End (Bigger BJoint UCAs...

    Steering Upgrade: Rack & Pinion!

    Who's got a recommendation & can the Rack & Pinion be done for less than $1000 (or better yet, for less than a Firm-Feel Box?) Also, are there some modern-day R&P parts from say Ram P/Us, or 1980s-2000s Mopars (or non-Mopars)? I once again call on ya'lls-z Mo-Brains!

    Power Steering Pump...1960 New yorker

    Sorry to post here, but hopefully you will indulge me: I need to replace the Pwr Steering Pump on my 1960 NYR (413 v8). I can't seem to find a direct replacement, so my question is: "Will a PS Pump from a later 1960s-present work?" I imagine that the main thing might be the need to modify...
