    Redline tires, who makes good ones and is it worth it?

    I bought some BFG redline radials from coker to put on some steelies on my 72 dart. Took them to discount tire to mount and two of them had a wave laterally or side to side. Date codes were 2017 and one of the guys mentioned they may have been stacked. Anyone have these tires or have problems...

    Not enough vacuum?

    72 Dart 340 has a choppy cam and I don't have the specs. Running 15 inHg vacuum out of my intake. The booster was just rebuilt by dewey boosters so I know it's not a bad booster. Think I need to run a vacuum canister? I hate to add equipment that is not stock.

    What’s the minimal distance you want between the LCA rubber bumper and frame while still having functional front suspension.

    Bad booster?

    72 Dart with 340 power discs, new calipers bled etc. Pedal was getting hard before replacing pads etc. Pedal still hard and motor pulling about 14 inHg vac at idle so increase idle and vacuum and doesn't help. Sometimes when you push on pedal it increases idle speed so is there a vac leak in...

    New bilstein shocks bushing lathed?

    Pulled front shock out to put on and immediately noticed bushing looked ground down at odd angles to the control arm and some paint off the bottom. Shock isn’t used but looks like someone tried to make it fit. I’ll pull the other one but I think I would’ve noticed it. The rep of the company that...

    Should I replace this caliper?

    Tear in the boot and I don't know how it would rub on the hub. Anyhow do you think it's a concern?

    NEW PST pivot shaft bolt sheared off. Can't get LCA out.

    I wasn't even to 100 ft-lbs probably around 80 and the sickening feeling of a bolt twisting off occurred. Now the shaft and LCA won't budge after hitting the LCA with a dead blow hammer and I was able to just tap the arm when I took it apart the first time.. The other shaft I noticed when it...

    Clocking lower control arms and PST 1.03 torsion bars. 72 Dart

    Called PST today and they said raise the arms all the way up to the frame with the bump stops off and have the adjuster bolt screwed in about half way. So I let the LCAs hang down and put the adjuster arm level with the LCA then screw the adjuster bolt in enough to contact the adjuster arm. I...

    Can you press LCA PST pivots shafts in too far?

    Pressed in my PST greaseable pivot shafts with poly bushings into my factory lower control arms. Mocked them up and it looks like when I go to tighten them they will pull the control arms in towards the crossmember and it may be too close. Did I compress the poly bushing or is there a finite...

    [WANTED] Need a right front spindle for 72 Dart!

    I've been searching and cant find one. Will it have to be out of a salvage yard if they have one by chance?

    Torsion bar won't come out.

    Adjuster is totally loose, shock out, CA just hanging and bump stop out, C clip out, heated the collar and can't beat it loose. I'm replacing them anyway so maybe cut it with a cut off wheel and remove CA to get it out hopefully?

    Doing brakes on a 72 Dart. Any upgrades or pad advice?

    I'm doing the front end so might as well do brakes. So any advice on rotors, pad, calipers is welcomed.

    1972 Dart sway bar.

    This may sound odd, but at first I thought someone removed the sway bar, but I don't see any mounting tabs. I'm a first time Mopar owner so be gentle. LoL I'm rebuilding the front end and would like to have one.

    Any words of wisdom before I start my front end rebuild?

    1972 Dart with a 340 and using a PST OEM rubber kit and pitman arm and not messing with the torsion bars. Any caveats or wisdom to pass, best manual? Obviously doing wheel bearings and brakes while I'm at it. The frame shop I go to wanted 1000.00 in labor to do it and that seems a wee steep.

    [WANTED] 67-72 original orange dart 340, 4 spd

    I'll edit this and be a little more specific. 1970 orange or go mango. 1971 hemi orange 1972 couldn't find a paint chart. I'll entertain any 67-72 V8 4 speed car if it's somewhat correct especially the motor, trans and color.
