67 Barracuda Front Shocks - Reducing amount of bounce

AJ/FormS said

I run 235/60-14s on mine at 25.1 tall,
versus 26.4 on yours. and
1.03 bars, and a big sway bar, and HD shocks, and I moved the battery to the back.
and a skid-plate. to protect my oilpan.
Now I can jump the bugger and do stupid stuff with impunity, like grass-Rally Cross. What a riot that is. Guaranteed big fun.

Check your bump-stops.

The tire size is the first issue I addressed.
But, I hamstringed myself early on with new 14 inch wheels, and Cooper Cobra GT Radials.
My tires are 225/70 R14s. And I don't think I want to be running wider tires up front....like the 235s that I can get in a shorter sidewall. (The 235s are the only 60 sidewall they current make) :(

I found some older Cobras in 215/60 R14 at the MOPAR Nats. But they are pretty old tires and I dare not use them on a high-speed highway. They look to be in good shape; so I slimed them and just use them locally and not at high speed.
And, I found a used 205/60 R14 at United Tire....but so far have only found that one tire.

I'm content for now with that little rub at the end of the driveway.
**But, I will be addressing the shocks and swab bar in the near future.

***WHAT YOU FOLKS HAVE CLEARLY SHOWN ME OVER TIME ON THIS FORUM IS.........
I would have done better if I had followed the Forum for 2 years, before I bought my Barracuda!!!!!
