I was wondering what size is the steering box to pitman arm nut on the 67-72 manual and power boxes, and the size of the nut on 73 up power steering boxes. i need to remove these and the largest socket and open end/box wrench i have is 1&1/4". thanks Matt

I am looking to buy a manual steering pitman arm for a 69 barracuda off rock auto. The catalog doesnt differentiate between manual and power steering pitman arms. Is the manual steering pitman arm the same spline count as the power power steering one for 67-72 or am i missing something here...

I am putting M body discs on my kids 69 barracuda. I know i have to use the 73 up disc brake lower and upper ball joints to use these brakes. I am using the 69 barracuda K frame and center link. According to rockauto, the adjustor sleeves are the same PN# from 69 up thru 76. Heres my question...

I have a front disc setup out of a 1985 fifth ave. I know about geometry corrected upper arms because of bumpsteer, but what i need to know is which year disc brake lower ball joints do i need to buy to install these on a 69 barracuda with stock 69 k frame and drum brake lower control arms? Also...

I am looking at the caltracs bars , and the mopar adjustable pinion snubber. Both do the same job preventing axle wind on hard launch. Adjustable snubber seems rather crude but effective. The caltracs seem to be a better thought out setup, but pricey compared to the adjustable snubber. I am...

Anybody ever use AC delco ball joints? Any good? I know moog is **** unless you buy american made moog in dusty old boxes.

Hi Y'all, I got a really crispy stock steering wheel. It was in my cuda when i got it. 45 years of Texas sunburnt, baked, and cracked "patina" LOL. Its way beyond repair. Trying to figure out what to do with it. I got another wheel to replace it. Should i put it out of its misery and toss...

Hi Y'all, I have a question regarding steering wheel splines. I have a 67 steering column i restored for my ride, and its now boxed up and in storage. I dont want to dig it out and open it up until i am ready to install in the car. I have a possible deal to get a nice 68 B body standard...

Hi Y'all, I really love the US car tool stiffener plates that tie the front shock tower areas to the firewall, however i am usually bucks down, and as such prefer to fab my own parts if and when i can. I usually have more time than money. I am a sheetmetal fabricator by trade and these look...

I have a 67 barracuda. I have access to a nice standard 3 spoke steering wheel with horn ring off a 68 B body. Will this fit my 67? Not sure if spline count or shaft diameter is different. Thanks Matt

Hi Y'all, I am looking at the borgeson modified GM 600 steering boxes. This looks like a great way to drop a few more pounds off the front end. I know this is a faster ratio box than stock with a more on center feel. I already purchased the longer C body idler and pitman arms from pst a few...

GM type ll power steering pump. Anybody use one of these little pumps? If so, have you any pix or advice to share. Thanks Matt

Not sure where to post this. Either engine or chassis forum so here goes. I am rebuilding a 67 barracuda. This car was never wrecked, i am transplanting a 318, and motor mounts, and K frame from a granny green 1974 dart 4 door parts car, also never wrecked. So i get the engine dropped in the...

I am looking for a 68 up idler arm mounting bracket. I believe this bracket is the same 6 or 8 from 68 to 76. Does anybody here have a rusted, or bent , or otherwise unusable A body K frame from 68 up that would be willing to cut this piece off leaving a piece of the K frame with it past the...

i can get a nice set of MP 1.09 torsion bars. i plan on street driving this car, and doing some autocross with it. small block 67 cuda. is the 1.09 too much bar for what i want to use em for? thanks in advance Matt

hi y'all, i have looked at 2 listings for the PST 1.03 torsion bars. one is listed as 0 indexing, the other says indexed. all it says is 0 indexing is for stock height, and indexed is for lowered cars. i know there were issues with the bars and the adjuster being way out of the arm to set...

anybody purchase the US car tool front chassis stiffener kit that stiffens up the shock tower area, and attaches to the inner fenderwell and firewall? if you have one of these uninstalled would you be interested in templating the pieces out for me on some flat card stock for a few $$$s ? i...

Did PST ever sort out the clocking issue on these. I'd be willing to pull the trigger on a set of these in a few days once my credit card statement closes if they have resolved those issues with them. I saw a bunch of pix where the adjuster had to be cranked way out of the top of the lower...

Do caltracs tractuon bars work against a rear stabilizer bar, or do they do their job, while letting the swaybar do its job.

Hi Y'all, Just ordered my hellwig front n rear sway bars for the cuda. I am using a 73 up spool mount K. So i ordered part # 55905 hollow front bar for 73 to 76 A and the rear solid bar pn # 6907 64 to 76 A. Total was $356 Jamie in their internet sales department was nice enough to hook me up...

Hi Y'all, the local salvage yard here in Abilene called FM600 wrecking has quite a few A bodies with V8 K frames from 73 up, and some with the 68 to 72 ones. most have engines in them so the engine mounts are all there too. i am not interested in going out there to pull any of these. i have...

Whats better on a street car that will see some limited autocross duty, a set of caltracs, or a mopar adjustable pinion snubber? Thanks in advance Matt

Is there that much difference between a 1&1/8" and a 1&1/4" diameter sway bar. I am going to be using the FF 1.06" torsion bars since they are indexed correctly,.now onto the sway bar. Hollow ones are nice because of the weight issues but for driving and occasional auto cross does the extra 1/8"...

i am pretty much self taught at most things, and i was looking thru rockauto and noticed they sell a gates brand power steering box rebuild kit. its $40 and comes with seals, bearings , shims o rings etc. i am using the PST fast ratio arms, and will be dropping pump pressure in the saginaw pump...

OK building my 67 cuda , and want it to handle like a race car on the street. it will be small block powered. i just purchased a set of the hotchkis progressive rate leaf springs. and have dillinger tubular upper arms, i have added subframe connectors, and will box in the chassis torque boxes as...

Anybody read the steering article in hot rod this month with the lime green valiant? They used a borgeson u joint, a modified faster ratio foreign car power steering box that fits the stock k frame and uses a mopar pitman spline to attach the stock.pitman arm ,a late model GM pump,.ididit...

I used to buy my custom made polyurethane stuff for my turbo mopars from john spiva at polybushings.com Now hes starting to make stuff for our older mopars. Im all about helping the little guy out Check his site out.

I believe PST used to sell rear leaf springs , however i cant find them in the online catalog, hotchkis sells their TVS rear springs with U bolts and front hangers, can i assume the hotchkis ones come with polybushings already installed too. I dont have too much info on either companys springs...
