Thanks for your input gus, I wasn't considering it to raise the car (although I'm sure it may indeed do so), but to improve handling.

I have a blown rear shock on my Challenger, and have a set of Monroe 58577 shocks lying around. I know these are for a C-body but I wondering if anyone has used them and to what effect?

I know what you mean, the engine in the car is way I bought the car, an overcammed mostly stock 340, and it had a 2.76 gear and you had to burn the clutch just to get the car moving! This car is just a driver for me and I debated on whether change the cam or change the gearing, and I'm very...

I'm still thinking about it. I have a 3:91 gear (which would make 1st about useless with the OD) and the car really likes it, but she really hums at 70 mph. I had a Barracuda with a 318 3spd, it had a 3.09 1st, and a 3:23 rear which actually run faster in the 8th than when I swapped it with 4spd...

Yeah but I already have the OD A883 sitting in garage floor :cool:

Awesome thanks, l have a bellhousing for it already

I'm thinking of using an OD I have in place of the 4spd in my Challenger. Anyone done this? Will all the linkage transfer from the 4spd?

Looks like the pitman arm won't work on my '73. My box has the 1 1/2" shaft vs. The 1 1/4" on the arm:(

Why do you need C body tie rods?

Thanks for your input. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. It's just such adjustment when I 1st drive it, and was curious if it would benefit. I do have a small block with headers so also wondering if that would be problematic?

When driving my stock power steering Challenger the steering can get pretty twitchy especially when switching from one of my modern car. My question is for someone using the a fast ratio steering and idler arms, does it make it feel firmer?

If you're good at body work, you might get your money back, but I'm not so I'd walk away if it were me

Also Grant makes an aftermarket tuff wheel thats a bit smaller and it's a direct bolts on no adapter needed. I put it on my Challenger and like it a lot

I'm using a Grant kit with no issues

Hey all, anyone the NC Traid area have a flywheel I can use to test run my motor? It doesn't have to be in good shape, it just has to have a good ring gear. The motor is on an engine stand and I need it to use the starter. It's going in a automatic so need a flywheel otherwise.
