Okay, I can do $43 for the four pieces, shipped. Just let me know how to put in my order. Thanks.

Hello Slant Six, If you can really produce the full set of four spacers for $25 or close to it, I'm in. Best of luck on this. My daily-driver '86 Fifth Avenue, with 199,000 miles on the clock, is crying for more caster & camber. Thanks.

Last night I decided to order two of the longer ones (4014352) from the guy on eBay who had 'em for sale. So I'll have those by the end of the week, and I could take them and the drawings from the Alignment Problems thread to a fab shop to a local fab shop and see what they can do. I'm near...

Yes, I saw that auction on ebay for one of the 4014352 spacers at $15. I really want to get all four and do both sides of my car at the same time. My toe-in is actually dead on the money, but camber & caster are hopeless. So I hope to find all four from one source, as you did. Thanks. Hey...

Hey Folks, Hoping to find two pairs of the Upper Control Arm Spacers, parts numbers 4014352 & 4014353, for my '86 Fifth Avenue. She has the usual problem, car has 198,000 miles and I can't get enough camber in the front end. Raised up the ride height with the torsion bar anchor adjustment...

Hey Folks, One last post to report a happy ending. I bought the lower control arm bushings linked by XfbodyX and they arrived in the mail promptly. Took 'em and the uppers I got from RockAuto (Moogs) to a DIY garage my wife found for me, and when I pulled in the guy who runs the place could see...

Hello XFBodyX, and thanks for all the input. This forum is a great resource because of people like you, and I appreciate your time & effort to find those quotes and tell me about the best bushings to look for. I plan to buy the three Moogs for $50 you linked in your post, and I have an...

Wow, that's really interesting. I have poly bushings on my front anti-sway bar, but everything else is rubber. I've had my '86 Fifth for five years and she's at 195,XXX miles now, and the ride's a lot clunkier than when I bought the car at about 130,000. I put a lot of miles on it and I just...

Hey, thanks for the link! The eBay auction says nine people are watching in the last 24 hours -- any idea why these bushings are so rare? The uppers are all over the Internet but the lowers aren't anywhere.

Hey Folks, I just ordered new upper control arm bushings from RockAuto for my '86 Fifth Avenue and they had several brands to choose from. But no bushings for the lower control arms. And I don't see 'em at Advance Auto, AutoZone, O'Reilly's, etc. Am I missing something? Anybody know where I can...

Hey, coming from you I consider that high praise indeed! Thanks for the kind words, and I do enjoy build threads other guys have done, especially on Magnum swapping. Have to admit I admire their garages as much as their expertise, since I just have a dinky little two-car attached garage to my...

Hey Duke 5, Thanks for the review, which is especially pertinent considering you've had the Borgeson box for 10 years. I appreciate you sharing your opinion and this is exactly the kind of information that makes forums like this so valuable. Like you, I started out keeping my Fifth just...

Okay, I look forward to seeing what you learn from Lares. I'm also curious about your own experience -- does the Borgeson box feel better, tighter, smoother, etc? More responsive? I'd love to bring my family to Windsor, but I'm afraid we'd all have to get passports to cross the Detroit River...

M Body Coupe, you have the cleanest engine bay I've seen in years! I've never seen those inner-fender access panels polished up like mirrors! I admire your dedication to your coupe -- you must do two hours of detail work for every hour you drive. Alas, my 192,000-mile Fifth Avenue will never...

Hey Roxy, did you ever replace your headliner fabric? I need to do this on my '86 Fifth, and the headliner in my '84 Diplomat parts car is just about perfect. I'm going to try pulling it out of the Diplomat and maybe dyeing it dark red to match the Fifth. The Dip has a light gray interior. I...

Hey, thanks for helping me out with your tips. Regarding the installation, did you have to take off your driver's-side header to install the steering box? I have stock exhaust manifolds and they're pretty bulky, and I'm concerned about snapping off a bolt when I try to take them out. And I still...

Thanks again for the informative reply. I have indeed looked at the Steer & Gear options and may try them instead. I can't really do the labor of swapping steering boxes myself, so I also have to find someone in the Cleveland/Akron area to install whatever box I get. A lot will depend on the IRS...

Hey, thanks for the great information. Duke5A, have you seen any drips from the Borgeson steering box since your installation? My Fifth has 190,000 miles, the factory box is leaking, it's not tight anymore, and I'm looking to upgrade. Bergman recommends the steering box cooler -- did you get...

Hey folks, Maybe I'm missing something, but I went to the Borgeson website today (11-4-25) to see the pricing for a power steering box for my 1986 Chrysler Fifth Avenue. I'd read about them here and the members seemed to like them, but I started to notice all the posts were from years ago. So...

Well, my 318 is probably churning out about 160 horses, so I think 5/16" fuel line is gonna be fine! Do you know how much pressure your fuel pump puts out? Since I want to use the factory lines in my Fifth Avenue, I want to make sure they can handle 12 psi without breaking. Thanks.

Where are you finding mechanical pumps for less than $20? I paid almost $30 for the last one at an Autozone store. Regardless, it's been in the car for about six months and doesn't seem able to deliver the pressure it did when it was new. I'm just tired of changing out mechanical pumps and want...

The mechanical pump I installed in February was good for a few months, and now it's putting out less & less pressure. As I mentioned, sometimes it's as low as 2 psi, and it doesn't seem to hold any fuel in the system overnight. In other words, I drive the car through the day, I park it in my...

Hey OldIron440, How did you build your system? What parts did you use? And what mistakes can you tell me to avoid? Thanks.

Hey Folks, I want to go with an electric fuel pump in my gas tank (Walbro TBI pump with reservoir tray that puts out 12 psi) and while I was thinking about how to install a return line from the regulator back to the tank, it occurred to me that there's already one there from the factory. The...

Hello Steven, In fact I do have the '84 Dip, and am pulling parts off of it for my '86 Fifth Avenue. I'm taking the 8.25-inch rear end & driveshaft out of it in a month or two, so it'll have no rear axle when I'm done. I already took off the Edelbrock intake & carb and the distributor, coil &...
