    I need pictures!

If you have installed any of my parts on your cars such as strut rods, steering linkage, coilover conversion, lower radiator support or other parts then please post a pic here...

    Finally Small Ball Joint Tubular Upper Control Arms are here

    I could not find a small ball joint screw in sleeve anywhere so I machined my own. It took some trial and error, but I am finally happy. Like my other arms they are engineered with an additional +5 degrees of caster. These should help out some of the guys not wanting to run a BBJ spindle...

    Upper Control Arm Torture Test

    I did this tonight to prove a point about the strength of these upper control arms. A couple of people on here in the past have questioned the strength of my welds. I wanted to press these in a way that it would test all of the welds. Pressing it from the side would only bend the tubes...

    Making my own upper control arms

    These will have the same dimensions as the factory arms, but they will have adjustment fore and aft for caster adjustment. The bump stop will contact the arm in the same position as stock. I have looked at a few different designs and taken ideas from a couple. I figure that I can make them...

    Nevermind, lets just do it all the same way.

    Here is a conversion anyone can do to help eliminate bump steer with the stock steering setup. I have done conversions like this on lifted heavy off-road trucks trucks running 37" tires and have had no problems. All of these pics of of the suspension sitting 1.5" lower than stock and the...

    Need a measurement

    Could someone take this measurement for me with your car sitting at ride height. It just needs to be like in the picture, from the top of the ball joint mount to the bracing on the upper shock mount. Thanks

    Building a display for my parts.

    I am building a display to showcase some of my parts and have a better visual of how things work. I will have this done over the next couple of weeks and take it to MATS in my booth. It starts with cutting up a perfectly good although slightly rusty 73 Dart. Look away if you have a weak...

    New Item. Coilover adapters

    Unless you have been following my tubular lower control arm thread then this won't make much sense. These are designed to convert from the bayonet style factory shock location to the more common style. They are 6061 aluminum and the hardware in the engine bay is 3/8" stainless steel. The...

    Best pinion angle for SS springs?

    I'm going to be welding on a set of spring perches on an 8 3/4 with super stock springs. What is the best pinion angle? Don't want to use shims. Car is a Dart Sport. Thanks

    Tubular Lower Control Arm Thread

    Well I have had the idea of building these rolling around in my head for a while now and due to the fact that this has been keeping me up at night thinking about it, I am finally going to do it. My goal is to build tubular lower control arms that will be used with coilovers and eliminate the...

    Coilover support bars, how much interest?

    I had a member ask me if I would be interested in making these with my bender. I plan on ordering either a 1" or 1 1/8" die for my tubing bender to make a set for mock up on my dart. The tubing in the pic looks smaller than 1" to me, what do you think? I am just wondering how much...

    Making my own lower radiator supports

    As some of you know I have started working on another members 73 Dart Sport and I have started working on some sheet metal issues and also some work on body stiffening. I made this lower radiator support with my tubing bender. It is intended to replace the weak factory piece or could...

    Why some guy shouldn't own welders.

    You are not going to believe this. I got into this project super cheap. The previous owner was planning on running 295-60-15 tires on this dart. So he flipped the axle perchs and removed the spring shackles in the back and welded them solid. WTF? This is why some guys should not be able to work...
