    Pitman/Tie rod taper

    Does anyone know the taper of c-body pitman arm stud as compared to other common angles (7 an 10 degrees). And I know it's "larger" than a-body stuff, but I'm looking for actual numbers. I'm getting a measurement of ~18 degrees on my '71 pitman arm stud so I'm getting confused as well. I need to...

    Shocks for lowered rear

    I know I've heard to consider the shorter shock of a mid-90s nissan p/u 2wd when lowering the front any considerable amount, but is there a cross-over application suggestion when lowering the rear, too? I plan to flip my spring hangers...

    Props to PST!!!

    I ordered a set of solid tie-rod sleeves and one arrived damaged. Package was ok, so I don't think it was the carrier. Anyhow, I talked with Mike at PST about exchanging them (not return b/c they are a nice piece and great price!) and he was very cool about it. Said it wasn't a problem if I...

    I have a 1969 Dart Custom \6. Front: Using the F/M-body spindles + '73-up UCA to do disc conversion.

    Sure grip questions

    I have found what appears to be a sure grip 8.25 diff in a '77 Magnum XE in pretty good shape at the local junkyard here. It uses coil springs instead of z springs for clutch pack pre-load it appears. I suppose it's the Dana-sourced Trac Lok? I'd like to swap it out for my open diff 8.25 that I...

    Tubular upper a-arms - Should I be worried?

    Story goes something like this: Researched upper a-arms for doing a BBP disc conversion on my '69 Dart and found tubular CroMo on eBay for not much more than what people wanted for a set of stock big ball-joint arms. Plus they claimed to improve the caster among other things. So I took the...

    1971 Duster in Knoxville, TN CL - not mine!

    Repeat "not mine", but I did go and look at it for a few minutes as the pictures don't tell much and the owner couldn't send me any extras. It has been advertised for quite awhile now and curiosity finally got me to drive out there (my '69 Dart Custom project in the garage had an intensely...

    In the Knoxville, TN +200 mile radius. Would prefer a running fish notchback or fastback but no convertibles. If it's close, then perhaps no drivetrain and I can tow. Mainly looking for a complete, clean body, suspension, and dash/door panels. I plan to turn it into a pro-tour/autox car. Thanks

    Turn signal and tail lights (2 Q's)

    I've got two questions: 1. My 69 Dart does not cancel the turn signals when I straighten the wheel out. It holds it on fine in either direction, but I don't hear a click or anything as I make the turn to allow for canceling it. Is the mechanism broken or was canceling not standard then and...

    14" BBP rims on 11" discs?

    So I'm going with '87 Fifth Avenue (M body) spindles and calipers to do my disc conversion on my '69 Dart Custom /6. I bought new tires when I first got it and they are still almost new. Without having to buy new tires, are there 14" BBP rims off of something that will fit the 11" discs? Thanks
