    New Torsion Bar - Settling and Adjustment

    Just finished a front end re-build (and new rear shocks and springs as well). I put in new JustSuspension 1" bars. I got the alignment close on the front end and it feels fine, doesn't pull to one side or the other much, but I know it'll need a real alignment since I just got it as close as I...

    UCA Problem!

    Trying to re-install my upper control arms right now. I had the new bushings pressed in at a shop but they left the little metal things ("ferrules?" in the instructions) out. I did my best pressing those in, but with them in, I can't get the control arm to seat in the frame. The front and back...

    Inner bearing questions

    Do some of the inner bearing seals have a rubber seal with metal lip? When I took off my hubs, I found a raised lip on one side that was rubber and came out easily with the seal, but on the other side the raised lip was metal and I pried (or perhaps tore) just an inner rubber cylinder out when I...

    Normal wear or time to replace?

    The rear leaf spring brackets on my duster are split in the cylindrical part. The split is probably 1 mm wide on one side and more like 2-3 wide on the other. They run the length of the cylinder. Is this split normal so I can re-use the rear brackets, or should I buy new ones? I figure they were...

    Replace 1 bushing, or everything?

    Got my car up in the air again to replace the torsion bars, and I notice that the LCA bushing is pretty much blown out on the passenger side. I should have noticed it earlier, the wear on that tire is really strange ("cupping" I guess would be the technical term). My question is, since I'm...

    Idler arm gouging headpipes

    My idler arm is cutting a nasty groove into my new TTI passenger side headpipe. I've already bumped up the engine height with three big washers under the passenger side motor mount, I don't think I can possibly put any more washers under there because there won't be enough bolt left sticking...

    Shock Question

    I'm looking at a suspension overhaul on the Duster. I'm thinking about getting rear leafs that are +1 inch with KYB gas-a-just or Monroe sensatrac shocks in the back. Can I use the standard shocks for a 73 Duster even with the +1 inch leaf springs?

    Mancini XHD vs. Jegs XHD leafs

    Does anyone know if there is a difference between the Mancini XHD springs and the Mopar Performance XHD Springs (P4510268/9) that you can get at Jegs or Summit? The Mopar Performance ones are about twice as expensive and I had read some threads about the Mancini being different left/right...
