1969 Dodge Dart Swinger clean up
FedEx showed up today with two parcels, header gaskets, header bolts and new lower rear shock strut studs.
These Remflex are about 60% thicker than the ones I took off. Hopefully they're the answer to longevity and no leaks.
New rear shock lower attach studs and new header bolts. Figured at a buck each it was a no brainer on the header bolts.
New Monroes for front and back and a new rear brake flex hose for body to axle.
31131 rears, 32022 fronts.
Drive shaft graffiti. Possibly assembly line markings?
Stood up for the return of my engine hoist this weekend, so had to go with plan B today and dug out my gantry. Issue, wouldn't fit past the spindles to get it centered.
That'll make it a bit narrower!
Gantry in place and engine/transmission off the K frame.
Now I can get to work on the K frame and front suspension as I have all the parts on hand to restore the assembly. Thankfully the steering box doesn't appear to need a rebuild.
