Is there a way to improve the front end suspenion on a Valiant? Its running just a single shock on each side, any way to improve this, maybe bring the fron end up an inche?

Usually front suspension have only one shock per side.

Have you had the car aligned professionally?

Are you looking for handling improvement?

What do you have now?

What year Valiant is this?

Tire size?:

front sway bar?:

front torsion bars (was this a V-8 car originally)?:


Some of the first steps for improved handling... Front and rear sway bars, 215or 225 tires in 60 series, KYB gas shocks.

Next, 1" front torsion bars, hothckis rear springs, upper control arm bushing installed for max caster OR tubular upper control arms, Hotchkis Bilstein shocks.

After that, subframe connectors, adjustable sperical ended strut rods, XV radiator support, XV shock tower brace.
