To follow the above thread to conclusion, I don't really have a comparison to go from. My Duster was a basket case when I purchased it, I haven't driven any other Dusters/A Bodies for me to get a baseline comparison to. I will say this, with the cop car steering box on it, the extra leaf spring and the rear sway bar - a touch of the steering wheel and you are moving in that direction. If you do this mod you should be able to report back what the difference is. One other thing, it is a cheap mod, if you don't like it, you can take it back off without any big loss of money!
