1969 Dodge Dart Swinger clean up
Wok with Wayne! I had a great idea, but it didn't quite pan out!! :rolleyes: The Wok I bought was bigger than advertised and not quite round bottomed.
Want to hide the messed up housing pot by cutting the Wok down to 9" diameter and welding it on, but I'm on the hunt for another one... or a pressure tank end.. or...
Using an old bearing race to press out the rotted spring bushings.
Took about 6 tons to get them to move.. but they're both out.
Main leafs, passenger side a tad flatter than the drivers.
Figured I should do something about that a little bit at a time.
Getting there.
A few presses and compare, repeat at the appropriate location.
Back to matching.
Nice thing about the Dart, both rear springs are the same part #... so I'm gonna swap passenger side for drivers, since the passengers side works harder on launches.
