    Suspension & Steering Shopping List

    For one thing the 4-link rear requires more fabrication & modification than I care to do on this car and I prefer to keep the front suspension more true to the factory design.

    ...the 72 Missile Butler built Butchs 73 Pro Stock Duster, the first Mopar Pro Stock race car featuring a complete tubular chassis with rack and pinion, and yes, headbanger bars, same with Bagshaw's race cars. Of course it would make sense....Ron Butler was Bill Bagshaws neighbor. Butch didn't...

    Glad you're ok.... Buuut.... WTF are you doing bolting wheels and tires on a suspension that isn't secured yet??? Hello, McFly.... :realcrazy:

    ...a bunch of positive caster to offset the effects of the wider front tires. I run +6.5* of caster on mine. And just get the idea of a rack and pinion out of your head, unless you’re going to spend $5k and replace the whole front suspension with an RMS or HemiDenny conversion. There is no rack...

    Stop in for a cup of coffee

    Thanks. I was working on the front suspension of the dart. Getting the rack and pinion installed. I’d bolted the front wheels on to the front spindles and they were hanging free. I was moving the spindle to the tierod when some how the spindle came off the the upper ball joint and the full set...

    First step to restoring my 1974 Duster; Front End rebuild (coilovers needed?)

    ...bother and would go straight to a tubular UCA to provide the additional caster. The only advantage to a coil over front end is the rack and pinion and header clearance. Beyond that it's all cons- requires chassis stiffening to work properly with the Mopar chassis because it doesn't load the...

    Swapping spindles for rack & pinion

    Here's the Pentastar parts rack and pinion install. Used an off-the-shelf rack for a commadore something. I actually reached out to them in 2016 and bought a set of the brackets which are sitting in my barn. One of these days I might look for a rack that will work with it (I'll need a LHD...

    Jeep 4.0 in 69 Barracuda

    ...thru the middle of the Sump on the 4.0L pan. For this to be done with an all OEM 4.0L, the linkage has to be moved forward with a rack and pinion steering such as how I started. Now for the good news. OMFG ~ its installed. And it fits really well. Better than I expected. I have pictures...

    [WANTED] bb abody headers

    I think you will have to make them. Before 1967 the steering box was way further in and in the way with all the brands I could find for my 65 Dart and had to custom build them. Unless you install rack and pinion steering.

    K-Member / Rack & Pinion Steering Suggestions

    ...are, what the REAL benefits are, not just "they're nicer". What the performance advantages are. And the coil over conversions do have advantages, they're really the only way to run a rack and pinion on these cars. I don't believe a rack and pinion is necessary myself, but that's just my opinion.

    Firm feel steering improvement?

    ...checking the steering coupler. Also, not sure what you mean by "slop," but a recirculating ball steering setup isn't gonna feel like rack and pinion no matter what you do. But it should track in a straight line on a level road without your hand even on the wheel. If it wanders and needs...

    Alterkation or K1?

    Maybe consider what makes the coil over / rack and pinion packages different..... If OK.....I'll speak for HDK a) Re-enforced upper shock tower / chromoly support hoops have been an exclusive with HDK from its first build in 1996. This system allows the hub to be tucked in closer to the...

    3.6 in A-body

    That's certainly an option. I upgraded the torsion bars to 340 bars, brakes to disc, and swapped out the manual steering box to new, tighter, one. (3 1/2 turns vs the stock, 4 1/2 turns I believe)

    A word of advice

    I was thinking about a rack and pinion !! That would free up some room ! Now I haven’t done it yet ! So not sure of the ends and outs ! What do y’all say ?

    Show your slant 6 a body!

    ...and an estimated 400 still in existence, I heavily modify this one. Yes the mighty slantie will go, replaced with a worked 318 with a turbo 700 trans, rack and pinion steering, big 4 wheel disc's and custom interior. Which as it's my trade, maybe a little over the top for a commercial vehicle!!

    Another "Is Fuel Injection a Worthwhile Upgrade?" Question

    I guess for me anyways..... if I wanted MPFI, A/C, Cruise, Tilt, Power Windows, Power seats, Rack n pinion steering, Blue Tooth, 8 speed automatic, and might as well throw in a few air bags for safety.... I would just buy a newer or new Scat Pack and be done with it. They are good looking...
