Restomod or Original OEM style?? - Feedback Appreciated!

can go either way for those results.

just did a 5,000 mile road trip in our dart and it rides and handles great with tube upper arms, adjustable strut rods, 1.08 torsion bars, borgenson steering box, hellwig sway bar and 11.75 stock style disc brakes. in the rear i have 130 pound eaton springs with a large bolt pattern 8 3/4. bilstein shocks at all 4 corners. 15x7 rims and 225/60-15 tires all around. also have a more aggressive alignment. it drives awesome, sticks to the road great. comfortable ride too.

that being said with the money and pain in the *** working with that stock suspension, any car i do from here on out will have an alter-k-tion. had an alter-k in my last car and should have put one in this car.

Agreed!.

I installed the Alterkation and Streetlynk suspension systems from RMS and they are working flawlessly after putting over 9000 miles on them.

If I had known of them when I started the resto, I definitely would have given serious consideration to HDK Suspension as their product and service is exemplary as well.

That being said, I have learned a lot from a couple of the members on here about how to get great results from the Stock systems. I did the K-Member gussetting, boxed lCR's, upgraded strut rods and tie rod arms , firm feel box , shocks , sway bar etc.. on my previous suspension but after installing the RMS system, I'm personally sold on it. I would never go back.

BTW...my dealings with Bill Rielly and RMS was perfect. I had a few concerns but they were dealt with immediately and to my satisfaction.
