Already posted before bout my 70 dart. My question is I’m getting tubular uppers arms
And im thinking about a PST 24:1 steering box. I’m not so sure that there is great advantage to perf lca’s
Recap:
Front fat sway bar
Stabilizer rear bar
KYB gas adjust shocks
SS springs
Fat torsion bars
Poly bushings
Really good tires
Upper arms
PST 24:1 steering box
A few other lesser items
I’m into quality parts and have spent way out of my budget
On the Dart. If lca’s are icing on the cake I will probably pass. My goal is to have excellent handling and power.
 
you would probably like a 16 to 1 or even better a 20 to 1 over the stock 24 to 1 ratio .
 
Sway bars and SS springs don't work together.
Sounds like you want something for the canyons, with the fat sway bars, tubular control arms,etc. If that's the case you would be better off with a set standard replacement springs.
SS springs are for 1/4 mile jaunts.

What is it you want your car to do ?
Street Strip Canyons Groceries ?
 
What The other guys said. Stock rear springs and a faster box. I have the 20-1 Box in now and feel just right for how slowly my car walks side ways doing clutch drops and drifts....
 
What do you plan on running for a tires, like size and speed rating? How do you intend to drive the car? Manual may not be your only option.
 
Better to call or email me to discuss. You’ll be happier dealing with someone who has real experience and owns an A body. I can deliver all parts customized to your application. Bergmanautocraft.com
