69 Dart T&T
Hi all !
Well , since the last time I posted , I got in touch with Magnum Force about my front end issue (right steering arm bent when I hit the brakes heading for the line after my burn out ) to which they (Ron Jenkins - owner ) that he would fix the part and beef them both up so this wouldn`t happen again at his expense. :) It seems my front end was an early design and the AFCO spindles that came with the kit could go that way under heavy braking. He also mentioned they are now using a Mustang II spindle and everything has been redesigned . So no new spindles for me . I shipped off the parts and about three weeks later received a call from MagForce stating they were done and if I`d like the spindles powder coated ? I declined the powder coating and received the spindles via pre paid Fed Ex about a week later . The spindle had been thoroughly beefed up and I don`t think they`ll bend again . I just repainted them and are now ready to go back on the car. I`ll post some pics when it`s all together .
In addition , the last time I spoke with Ron , I asked about making my currently bushed upper control arms adjustable by cutting off the bushings and replacing them with spherical rod ends. Ron mentioned that is possible but also offered me a new set for around half $ . I said I`d think about it , since I can mod them myself for only around $100.00 worth of parts.
So I guess all in all a good experience with Mag Force for me .
I hope to get out to the garage today and get the front end back together with some pics !
