Hi. just wondering where I can order front and rear torque boxes for 71 A body?? I haven't been able to find a vendor that has them. :banghead: Thanks.

go to ebay and query "mopar torque boxes" there is a crap load.

I made mine for my 67 Dart both front and rear. Cost me less than $15.00

Awesome because the ones I did see were like 200 plus shipping. you have a couple of pics of yours on your car? I'm sure I could probably fab some up if I saw some good home made ones. Thanks.

US Car Tool has some nice ones, but they are pricey. They have some good shots of the boxes installed on cars. I have a set of their sub-frame connectors, nice quality.

I built the Sub Frame connectors and the torque boxes for less than $50.00 for all if I remember correctly.

My car is so dang stiff with the Sub Frame Connectors, Torque Boxes, front radiator support and 14pt Cage. It will easily sit on 3 jack stands and I have had it teetering on 2. The doors shut perfect. They still click, click when you close them. All body gaps are perfect.
