These are pics of the process. I'm a newbie to the heavier side of mechanics, but learning.

Your eccentric bolts need to be adjusted. The newest modification is to use the Moog K7103 offset bushings to achieve more adjustment for our new tires.

or NAPA 267-1367's. $15.82 each. Moog is made by federal mogul, and federal mogul makes ALL of napas chassis parts.

NAPA 267-1367's. That is good to know. I will add that to my part number collection.

Do they have as much adjustment as the Moog K7103?

Here is a link posted by 67Dart273 to the numbers your front end alignment tech will need with the use of modern radials.

as far as i know they are one in the same.

ok I see the difference in the centering of the bolt inside the bushing, is it a different length?
The problem I'm having is in the first pic, I have the original upper stacked on the dart upper. the dart seems to be an inch forward of the original.

I'm not seeing where the new bushing is going to move the upper backward when the brackets on the frame don't seem to have any room to move backwards.

OK after playing with it a few more minutes....
The hole in the frame is a slot that allows for a lot of shift front to back, hence the concentric bolt that can hold it in place. I think I got this now.
Thanks for all the great information here!
