it is amazing they held together! some close ups of the home made reinforcement plates and reinforcement welding on post 38 http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=186036&page=2

This. And welding (heating) may make it out of square. Used a jig when I did mine to make sure it stayed square. Pics on page 2 of my build thread http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=186036 -Chris

Post 24: http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?p=1970088617 67 beat me to it. The body manual has very detailed measurements for the frame.

Looking good! Is an E-Body version forthcoming?

Hi James, I was going to send a pm, but figured others may want to know. Do you also sell a shock that is for "lowered" a bodies? If so, what is the difference? I ask because I stumbled on an old post about some with a different part number: 55 R097...

has the car had an alignment, or did you just assemble it?

indeed, your pic show that the centerlink is not the straight type used 73up. take a look at my pic where the idler goes in, if you orient that tab correctly you should be good.

here is a pic of my 67 stuff while still assembled The idler is slightly different than yours, but all else should be the same.

^^^I have driven this car before and after the driveway alignment and I have to say it has NEVER driven this well before. Using vinyl tiles from home depot as turntables and a crayon to mark the most level section of driveway sounds crude but it works!

sure it is not a $40 piece of pipe :) http://www.jegs.com/i/Flaming+River/898/FR1940/10002/-1?CAWELAID=1710568701&catargetid=230006180000514857&cadevice=c&&cagpspn=pla&gclid=CK7ph_O4w7wCFZFrfgodLHsA7Q

Thanks Ross. I suspected so, no mention in the FSM. But is it odd...why bother stamping them differently? The letters are oriented differently in relation to the bolt head, maybe some sort of initial alignment while they were being assembled? Maybe a line worker knows...

Hello- While cleaning up and painting the upper control arm cam bolts, I noticed two are stamped with an "A" and another "B" and another "C". Upper control arms and bolts are from a 73 Duster, going on my 67 barracuda for disc brake conversion. Are these marks to locate the cams L/R and...

I know the point of your thread is to gauge who IS interested, and not who is NOT interested. But it may be helpful to understand why someone may not be interested in what is basically a copy of another design that is intended to be different from the original (mopar design). When you say...

I have not seen any done quite like this, very nice. did you weld to the floor where it touched, or essentially just the ends that touch the frame? also, is that your orange cuda in the profile pic? where can we see more pics of that car?

Not sure where you are in cali, but I got my energy kit from this guy in modesto. very knowledgeable, and he even mailed out extra pieces when my brother ran into issues. http://suspension.com/ PS bought poly same as my brother, his car has no suspension squeaks. (mine is not assembled yet)...

x2. repaired is a good thing! Since you have it out anyway, not a bad time to inspect and strengthen. I swapped my k and did a full re-weld and added reinforcements similar to what is linked above witha few enhancements. Here are the pics of mine (about half way down)...

cool thread about this: http://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=Racer&Number=6500876&Searchpage=1&Main=6500575&Words=+Comp+Chassis+2&topic=&Search=true

I'm sure someone would trade for new oem style spings

X2 the key components for the bbd swap are the spindle and upper control arm.

Sometimes they are "cut up" to replicate the direct connection big block k-member (or could be one bought over the parts counter in the 80s) If it is cut like that, you might be able to get some decent money for it. I just put a 73 k in my 67 barracuda. On the second page towards the bottom...

No such mounting point on the 67 fb. :wack: since our cars are post-less, i think a vert style mounting (low and rearward) would be the most appealing retrofit.

For those reading this thread in the future, it should be noted that mowrycuda68 has changed his avatar to a folding chair. Good sporting! oh btw Steve (4spd), I am playing hooky and working on my car tomorrow, since my car is all apart I will see if the 67 fb has a provision for a shoulder strap.

x2 show off a little!:blob:

x2 also added some round bar to reinforce the arches and a tow hook. there are some pics if you follow the link in my sig also firm feels site will give you an idea as well. http://www.firmfeel.com/reinfkfram_a.htm

Brilliant!

Alright, the cobbler will have shoes!

sorry i see disc conversion in the title: http://www.moparaction.com/Tech/archive/disc-main.html relevant excerpt: Bear in mind, though, that 15" wheels are needed to clear the giant 11.75" rotors (see fig. ** ). If you can't bear to part with your mint 14" rallies, no sweat, we have...

if you removed front end components that are adjustable, good chance they are not perfectly adjusted now. take it in for the alignment, and if something else on the front end was not installed correctly, they should catch that too. when you said you did the front end, are you talking ball...

hmm back to square one...

thanks for the info, pic and code decryption. bending her back is not a good idea...time to go shopping
