71 Duster 360 turbo build
I ordered a replacement leaf spring from summit and will have the bushings pressed in. Hopefully they don’t break the second time around. They are 1” bushings and everything I’ve read says that’s the correct bushing size.
I’m also going to revamp the front suspension while it’s off the road for the next month of hot temps; 118 in our forecast.
I am already running offset bushings in the upper control arms to add caster. I’ll be replacing the lower control arm with poly bushings, and I have built my own adjustable strut rods based on this thread:

while it was apart I seam welded and reinforced the k frame. I’m going to be switching to 1.09 torsion bars and fox shocks all in the hopes of greatly improving the cars handling.
