70 dart 470 ci drag car build.
I only had a couple hours this weekend to work out in the garage.
My good buddy Tim brought me over a lathe, that he went out of his way to get and give to me for nothing (except for the help I'll gladly give).
Very cool new toy.
I was going to try and mock up my anti-roll bar and of course the box I got had the parts kit open and so there was a lot of metal banging together.
I put the bushings on yesterday and the got stuck so bad I had to press them back off. Turns out the bar was about .008 bigger than the id of the PTFE bushings.
I took it to work and put it on the crank lathe and polished it until it was really close and finished up the bushing on the rod hone. Now the bar turns easily in the bushings.
