Look, you're not getting it. When you tighten the torsion bar adjustment bolt you are rotating the control arm, not the torsion bar. That is why it rides higher. You have not changed pre-load (there is none) or spring rate. I think you are speaking in extremes? as in cranking it way up and...

CAP parts are the shiznit!:angry7:

Goldduster, the ss springs were a little taller for tire clearance that you don't need. If you want it to sit lower just install some 1" blocks at the spring/axle housing. Those Espo +1" springs will hook just fine.

deep backspace looks tough!

Make that cleco. Cleco is actually a brand name.

I didn't see one either, but I would think you can get one.

There is a trigger on the torch. Most people like the foot control and I'm thinking it can be added.

I have purchased a lot of tools from HF. The ones that suck you can pretty much tell lookin at em. I would not be mail order shopping from them. I have one 30 miles away so it's cool for me. I have their brake caliper tool set, 10" sliding compound miter saw ($80 and nice!), assorted air die...

What did the rear brake setup cost?

That's lookin' killer! Do you have a parts list/plans drawn up for all that?

I have a set of the mopar bolt-ins.......$120+ shipping they are brand new

I have those springs on my 69 swinger...it sits about the same as yours now. Torsion bar adjustment may help but it won't level the back...lol

dodge29, do you have arms that will fit our cars?

I believe the gusseted arms are mild steel, the non-gusseted are chr-moly and don't require gussets. I tried calling MF, no answer.

I like the Magnum Force and would spend for either the #1 or #2 arms they sell. They are very nice and made of chro-moly with badass rod ends. #1: http://www.magnumforce.com/store/detail.asp?ProductID=3895&CategoryID=40&BrandID=&Category=&SubCategory=&Search=&Page= #2...

Well put! Can't we get the DOT involved in this?:spiderma:

gussets are not required when using the correct materials for the design and then welding those materials properly. http://www.inertiamotorsports.com/camshafts.html http://www.progressiveautomotive.com/IFSparts.htm and a very interesting design here...

Alright, I didn't have time earlier...the real difference between Magnum Force's 2 styles (gusseted and not) is not in the design of the control arm...it is in the material used to make the control arm. The two control arms without gussets are chromoly steel. The other two are probably a milder...

look at the magnum force arms without the gussets (2 have em, 2 don't) the ones without are using the balljoint socket as a gusset

Magnum Force's stuff looks top notch as well! =P~ http://www.magnumforce.com/store/detail.asp?ProductID=2546&CategoryID=40&BrandID=&Category=&SubCategory=&Search=&Page= http://www.magnumforce.com/store/detail.asp?ProductID=2544&CategoryID=40&BrandID=&Category=&SubCategory=&Search=&Page=...

I have been to the Mancini store up outside Detroit. I walked around in there for 5 minutes before I found a part for a Mopar! LOL Is there a Mancini left or is it in name only????? And yeah...they still list the cap crap with no name...

Well, it held up well beyond the warranty period! LOL

Wow! That sucks...are you gonna weld some plate on to beef it up or what?

That's cool that he was able to hook you up. Odd issue with the idler/pitman arms... I was a little curious about the spindle's bein swapped, but maybe that has no effect...as in..they are centered on the pivot point.

Did you get it complete rotor to rotor and if so, how much was that? and thanks for a little unfiltered honesty! LOL

Dude, the 7.25" is one of the most under-rated rears out there! I had one back in 88 in a dart. I could not destroy it and it simply would not rust away! Oh yeah....thats because I removed it from my car and SoCal weather is so dry that it just didn.t rust....lol damn...didi I miss April fools...

Blownfish, the rears have been tested and the articles have been written..........but by all means, believe and run whatever you like. The extra weight had little to no effect on strait line performance. I do not agree with you on your reasoning of why the 9" is most popular. Just look at the...

Nice, Syd! DusterDude, sounds like it was defective.....

Aftermarket support is not real limited on either unit anymore. If you have an 8.75" already, I can't see it being much of a price difference in building one or the other...ya might even come out cheaper with the 8.75". It's not like you have to do much in the way of beefing it up...unlike the...

Gryzynx, the 9" has an extra bearing to support it because it NEEDS it! LOL Your spline count info is incorrect. I know, I own an original 69 dart swinger 340 4speed car w/8.75" rear end. It came with 30 spline axles from the factory. Here's a replacement axle, for example...
