Looks great and great to know about the AA harness - thanks for sharing!!

That's helpful - thanks for the pics - and B Bonnie is looking good!

BTW: Sweet Duster!

Ok, thanks for the info. That's helpful. ~Q

that’s what I’m thinking will be the issue too. Did you have any offset on your wheels?

Has anyone successfully used 255/50-17s at all 4 corners on their Duster or Dart Sport? I'd like all four of the same size tires - 245/45-17s will work for sure (based on a huge amount of data from 72bluNblu and others) but, to me, the sidewall seems a tad short. The general thought is if...

Dude - looks great! You should be very proud. Nice work!

Perfect - thanks all ~Q

I hear you but 73-74 stuff is way more affordable - at least from what I've found.

I have a 74 Dart Sport on which someone installed a 75 Duster front clip. I want to go back to a 73-74 Dart front end. I know I'll need fenders, header piece and a hood. Do I also need to change the radiator support? Will the bumper work? Anything else I'm overlooking? Thanks, ~Q

Very nice work - that is one sweet 73 Sport!

Yes, still available

PM'd you

TTT

I was shooting for as much as I can get! Hoping for more than granny on the SKOSH chart (1.5*) but could not get any positive caster. Rebuilt front suspension with the QA1s couldn’t even get to 1*. Tried stock rubber on LCAs and strut bushings improved only slightly but not yet to granny and...

Bump

According to QA1, they do not sell the boots but they should be available at any parts store. The QA one tech told me that it should be the same as any over the counter ball joint boot

bump - would entertain trade for A-body 4-speed pedals

I purchased these QA1 upper control arms in May. They fit beautifully and looked great but, even with the built-in 2-3* of caster, it wasn't enough for decent alignment specs on my 74 Dart Sport. We then turned to some adjustable SPC UCAs and I got what I needed. One of the boots is split but...

It looks really good! You did a great job.

So, the previous owner installed a B&M shifter and I'd like a floor shift steering column. They can be pricey (for me anyway). I wondered if I could just cut off the offending column shift nomenclature and display. Searching the forum I found "Modifying Auto on the Column Steering Collars -...

Forgot to post pics of strengthening the LCAs. Obviously, this happened before the above pics. Following the lead of Jim Lusk, and his video on YouTube, we cut the weld on the bump stop mount, squeezed the two halves closer together to take up the slop, and re-welded the mount. Only had to do...

Tabs and bump stops are installed. Getting closer....

Been busy and haven't had a lot of extra time to play with the Dart but we did get new bushings installed in the lower control arms and we were able to drill the holes for Hellwig (55905) sway bar tabs.

I know this is an ancient thread but I had a very similar experience with CPP UCAs. I tried and tried to get them to go in and finally did but they were so right I couldn’t get the bolts installed. Something did not look right and because it took A LOT of coercing to even get them that far I was...

I ran it by 72bluNblu and he said it was fairly common so much so that there was a service bulletin: So my buddy helped me weld them up last year but with everything off he made a plate that will tie everything together. Here they're all cleaned up: And here it's done with the plate...

One of things I'm concerned about is the cracking around the UCA ears.

Are there installation instructions for the original DC rear spoiler? I got one last year from eBay and wanted to see how they installed it ‘back in the day’

Driving my car last summer was fun but scary at times. The bushings are shot and there’s definitely an alignment issue. We started tearing it apart and will address the cracked upper control mounts as well as install a sway bar. A buddy found some used CPP on Craigslist so I’ll be installing...
