A friend is working on a 1968 GTX and doing some major bodywork. I have a frame chart for my 1970 Dart that says "Copyright 1970 by George W Liskey". I know that I ordered the chart from a company, but damned if I can find the source for mine. Does anybody know a source for these diagrams...

Trying to help a friend in our local Mopar club install power steering on her 67 Dart. Car has a 340 with the cast iron water pump (and driver side lower radiator hose) with mounting for PS pump. It is a Thompson/TRW pump. Is there a source for a rebuilt pump with reservoir? Is there a...

I'm working on a 67 Dart with a small block and finding an original small TRW/ Thompson pump is difficult and expensive. Does somebody sell a set of brackets and hoses to install a more readily available saginaw pump on these cars? It has a cast iron water pump that exits on the drivers side...

I'm helping a deceased member's wife make his 67 Dart more usable for her. That includes power steering. The car was switch over to a 340. He had installed a three belt crank pulley and got the right brackets to use with the cast iron water pump. I found a power steering box and the shorter...

I'm helping someone install power steering in a 67 dart. They don't want to have to swap radiator so I'm going to post a want ad for the correct ps brackets for that cast iron pump set up. What years did they use that water pump on an LA A-body. I presume the brackets would be the same for A...

Looking to install power steering on a 1967 Dart GT. Has a 340, but with old style cast iron water pump with drivers side lower radiator hose. Can somebody take a few pics of how this is supposed to look (brackets, mounting, etc.)??? Owner (old friend's widow) can't drive the car easily with...

So I have seen plenty of posts here saying that you should NEVER put air shocks on a car and I have seen air shocks used improperly to cover up worn out leaf springs in a car, or to jack it up to a place where the rear suspension simply doesn't work. Today I started packing for a Thursday...

An A-body friend of mine passed away unexpectedly a few years ago. His widow wants to drive his 67 Dart to local shows and such, but he had manual steering on it and she can't handle that very well. We located a whole power steering set up for her, but what she doesn't have is the shorter...

I'm building a 1970 Dart. The whole front suspension is new with a variety of upgrades: tubular A-arms, beefed up lower control arms, 1.03 sway bar, heavy strut rods, 340 torsion bars, lower steering sector stabilizer, solid tie rod connectors. All the bushings are rubber. Everything is new...

Working on a 70 Dart. I am well familiar with 10 inch drum front drum and hub assemblies, and even aftermarket discs, but this is my first go with original K/H discs. Are the studs swedged in place like a drum and hub? If you have a hub without studs, new studs and a new rotor can this all...

I'm working on rebuilding a set of original K/H disc brakes on my 1970 Dart. In replacing the wheel bearings I found that one of the outer bearing races was loose in the hub - I could take my fingers and move it around in the hub. I got a new bearing and race and installed that race and had...

Before I spend another hour getting conflicting info from vendors: Are the wheel bearing dust caps on the front of a 1970 Dart the same for 10" drums and 11" K/H discs. Please don't answer unless you really know for sure... Thanks.

I'm trying to help a member here that needs a good strut rod (his is bent). I was all ready to blast a set and ship them when he mentioned that his car is a 73 Dart.. All mine are off 70 Darts. I checked on a couple of web sites and they seem to list just one of all A-bodies. Is that correct?

I bought a steering sector support kit For my 70 Dart from Firm Feel in Vancouver, WA. I have the whole front end apart and have installed an NOS factory firm feel steering box. I have been on the phone with Frank at Firm Feel but i can't get the bracket that holds the bearing in place to line...

I'm working on a 1970 Dart that was originally a 318 2bbl car. Today I cleaned off the ends of the torsion bars getting ready to take them out for a complete front suspension rebuild. The passenger side says 892R (which is what I expected) but the drivers side says 883L, which I can't even...

Is there a guide somewhere that can be used to Identify LCAs??? I tried to use the number stamped into the side but it isn't a part number and I can't find a list of these "casting" numbers by year and model. It would be great to be able to ID A body vs B-body and year brackets. How do you...

Is there a set of instruction somewhere for reassembling a front end with all new parts. I've done this before a few times but it has been a few years and it would be great to find a set of step by step instructions for the best result. Regarding LCAs is there a recommended method to get the...

In a big parts purchase I ended up with a brand new power steering box - Chrysler part # 3643334. From internet research this seems to be a factory Firm Feel box for police cars and some big block or hemi E and B body cars. Can anyone confirm that? I would like to use the box on the 1970 Dart...

I guess this is the right place for this. I'm building a 70 dart and the car gets new paint. I know that the factory put struts under the hood that run from the firewall pinch weld to the front fender bolts on later Darts (73-76?). I presume that it was to stiffen things up front because of...

A friend was given a pretty complete disc brake set up. it was on a 72 dart and the owner bought some sort of fancy aftermarket brake set up. from the 3 pics he sent me, I believe that this is an A-body 73 and up "slider caliper" disc brake set up. What could we check (measurements?) to...

I bought frame stiffening materials from US Car Tool for my 1970 Dart GT and we installed them finishing yesterday. We put in 4 torque boxes and the subframe connectors. Unlike many subframe connectors, these install to the floor of the car like the original subframes so that the floor of the...

I'm working on a 1970 Dart and have a DC K-frame that I want to use. Will the 1970 suspension parts (lower control arms, sway bar, etc) fit on this K-frame? It is based on the 1973 and up k-frame but modified to mount a big block.

I'm assembling an 8 3/4 housing on a Dart that originally had a 7 1/4 set up (anybody want the 7 1/4?) and it seems that the U-bolts that go through the shock plate and hold the housing to the springs have slightly different length legs. Does the longer leg go to the front or the rear???

A few years ago, I was rebuilding the steering coupler in one of my 1970 Darts and was able obtain a big wire clamp that goes over the coupler and holds the cap on. It came with a Chrysler service bulletin that gave detailed instructions on rebuilding the joint and installing the clamp, which...
