Other choice is that instead of typical Mopar chassis lift, you could go to droop instead.

Who cares if you are unable to get the old parts anywhere?. Adapt and do something else.

Well, If you're unable to find them anywhere in NZ (lived in North Island myself) then how'bout you just take the springs to a shop, have them redone to your height and buy a pair of suitable normal shocks? Salvage what ya'got?

With 92% of California being in drought again according to ABC this morning, why don't you guys sell that rain here. "I'd buy that for a dollar"

My wheels are 18x8 with zero ET and tire size is 235/55R18. I had to make a little room in all four corners to make them not rub. I can honestly say that this is the extent to what it comes to tire size with stock wheel wells in the back, they're close both on the inside and the outside on an...

Many people forget about their projects and then the car either goes to the crusher or maybe somebody else saves it from that or just postpones the demise. You have not forgotten yours and have passion for it, that's a good thing.

Thank you.

Upgrade in wheel and tire size from previous 17x7 inch wheels. I fabricated the new ones from Ford Explorer Police Interceptor wheels which are 18x8". Tire size all around is 235/55R18

BudW, once you go twins, there's no going back. After that the "single" people are just... simple. At one point I was contemplating of having a mid-size supercharger and a huge turbo. Compound turbos are better when they are sized right.

Aspen500, I would have to disagree with you completely about Cummins diesel engines in a Dodge PU. That inline six is among the best engines ever built to me. Huge power potential, can be turbocharged up to 75-80 psi of boost without any internal modifications. Been there, done that, a twin...

I know a European company that produces huge variety of windshields. They do custom glass too. Should I ask them if and how much if nothing else works?

Today I met a gentleman named Peter in downtown San Jose with a gold 5th Avenue. He saw me and my wife driving by, waved, and we stopped and had a great conversation. Don't know whether he's a member here or not. This was the second M-body that I've seen in the Bay area.

Just did the shocks on my M-body few days ago. I have been enjoying a balanced ride ever since. Stock everything else but the shocks, which are KYB Police Special in the front and Gabriel Ultra in the back. One of the most balanced rides in a traditional US V8 RWD live axle suspensions ever. I...

The idea of this was to use lowered spindles but still the original ride height with the only real difference being higher preload setting in the torsion bars and therefore possibly firmer ride with original torsion bars. I know the thicker torsion bars is the best way to go. I was only...

Anybody ever tried these on the M-body? I've been pondering about whether it would be beneficial to use these and tighten up the torsion bars to gain stock ride height. Bump steer would improve slightly but what I'm struggling to grasp is whether the front suspension bound and rebound action...
