    Why are front end rebuild kits so expensive??

    So far I have bought one piece at a time from rock auto. You can pick the brand you want and sometimes you can pick to get parts from the same sources to save on shipping. This has been way cheaper then buying a kit and also let me skip parts that I might not need to buy. ex i am getting...

    Manual steering box question

    There seems to be some posts that agree that there is supposed to be a tight spot in the center of travel, i'm going to double check the adjustment and see how it is.

    Manual steering box question

    it really doesn't seem bad, just reaches the middle of the travel and gets tight. I'm turning it with a pair of channel locks and I can keep turning it. It might hardly be noticeable with a steering wheel on it. It just seems that my other box spins the same all the way through its motion so...

    Manual steering box question

    if thats the case then I might just use another box, I was going to use this box on the kframe and suspension i am building to swap into the car. I didn't want to remove the one thats in the car now because I couldn't move it then. I got this one at a swap meet to save some trouble. I can...

    Going rate on a V-8 K frame

    just buy conversion mounts, unless of course you need to do a suspension rebuild anyways. Only way it makes sense to swap k frames is if you are going to take everything apart anyways. Its nice to have it all put together outside of the car before you start pulling the old apart

    blew my u-joint out

    if your looking for more then a quick fix i would ditch the the whole rear and go with something stronger. Those 7 1/4s are a ticking time bomb or maybe just get it on the road again and work on getting all the parts together

    lowering the front end

    thanks, i thought that was the case but I didn't want to just start messing with things. I was swapping tires around this weekend and for a time i had a smaller tire on the front and the stance looked great with the front sitting a little bit lower. So i might play around with the bars. I'm...

    lowering the front end

    how much can i lower the front of my car by just adjusting the torsion bars? I want to lower the front of my car a little bit to give it a more aggressive stance. Also what effect will this have on the car by doing this? thanks
