Mopowers' 66 Dart Build
We're just running late model A body upper arms with the re-enforced stock lowers, 10.8" brakes (I have brackets for the 11.75 discs, I just don't think it would be smart with the skinny tires we'll be running). So, pretty much using a stock front end with poly bushings (rubber lower control arm bushing) and C-body tie rods (just because I needed new ones and they were cheaper than the small A-body tie rods). We may have to modify the K-member once we mock up the engine and oil pan. We'll be using .890" torsion bars as well. I thought of going with the alter-ktion, but at this point, I'd rather put that money elsewhere. The frontend parts were basically free to me. I may step up one day and run coil overs and tube uppers, but we'll see.
