Hemi I totally understand. We have used this particular shop on a handful of occasions for more machine type issues. They are a Mennonite shop in PA. There is another in MD that we have used too but they are normally so busy doing commercial stuff they take a long time. Again, I cant thank you...

Very true Krazy. Krazy do you know would that LCA bushing be okay being I moved that sleeve? I did press it back but I am worried that the metal sleeve is suppose to be stuck to the rubber. Molded I mean.

Trust me I always take everyone's advise on here to heart. I am so grateful for everyone on here who is kind enough to lend their years of knowledge in which I am 100% sure is knowledge from hard knocks. I love this site and all the friendly people on it. I am sure he is dead on. I am just sure...

I tried and the bob the builder set of sockets in my dads little shed (where the press was) didn't have a socket that seemed to fit that hole tight enough. Who knows, it was hot and I was getting irritated that I ruined the bushing that I might have been just disgusted with myself. I have...

Guys does anyone know if I already pushed the inner sleeve (the one the pin goes in) out an inch or so would that ruin that bushing? I carefully pressed it back into its proper location. I am going to have my dad run the UCA's and LCA's to a machine shop tomorrow to press in all the bushings. I...

I already have the UCA's cleaned up and purchased the Super graphite kit for them. Now I am just worried I already messed up by pressing the bushings in the LCA's first:(

So the bushing is now ruined? I already put both bushings in the LCA's. Is there no way to get the pivot pin in once the bushing is in the LCA?

Fellow members I am still learning when it comes to these old Mopars. I am use to working on trucks so this uni-body cars front suspension is driving me nuts! I got the front suspension apart, cleaned up and painted. I started with pressing in the LCA bushings but when I started to press in the...

I found a set. I want to say thank you to everyone who PM'd me. Its great people like everyone of you that helps inexperienced youngsters like myself do the things I do. I cant thank everyone enough. SGbarracuda thank you for all your help:)

Hi, I am looking for a pair of upper control arms for a 1967 Barracuda drum brake car with the small ball joint setup. I am hopeful to find a set local to Martinsburg WV, 25402 so I can try and have them cleaned up and ready for reinstall. Although I am not against buying and shipping them...

Kosmic thank you for the heads up. I have reached out to PST and asked about the kit. Not knowing if the DC K-member required a different kit for some reason. I will be using the factory LCA's, UCA's, and middle link. I also wasn't sure if the steering components were different from a 67 to a...

Hi guys, I am building a 1967 Barracuda that's a factory 273 drum brake car. Now its getting a 440 with a Direct Connection K-member. I currently have the complete front suspension tore apart. I plan to remove the bushings and get everything painted up before putting everything together. For...

Gold were they bolt in that you decided to weld? I only see bolt on's. Do you think they are better than the MP bolt ins?

Thanks for all the helpful info guys. My car isn't a drag machine but with a 440/4spd I will get on it at times. I think welding them in will be a positive.

Dano the biggest problem I am finding and it may not be correct is the wheel base. I believe my 67 Fastback has a 108" wheel base and all of the bolt in/weld in are for a 111" wheel base. Can anyone confirm? I am sure there has to be a company out there that makes bolt in connectors for my 108"...
