1970 Roadrunner Looking for advice

[Roman1970RR]

Hello All

Just an introduction I’m a newbie mopar owner recently purchased a 1970 roadrunner. Awesome car looks immaculate but needs quite a few upgrades and improvements to handling etc. here to learn from peoples first hand experience. I already have a list of things I need to sort!

Great to be here thanks for having me.

Wow! She’s pretty!
For handling, I just added an Addco front sway bar & 1-step larger than stock torsion bars and I’m happy with it. There are more aggressive parts, but I street drive my Road Runner

Check out FIRM FEEL, INC. - MOPAR STEERING & SUSPENSION I have a bunch of their parts including rear springs, rear 3/4" sway bar and other parts like a 1" front sway bar, larger torsion bars, etc. Still restoring mine but when it's done we'll have twin cars!

Also check out Quality Body Shop Drivetrain for brake packages and drivetrain upgrades. I've got a bunch of their parts to go on my bird including their 11" front disc brake setup.

Welcome to FBBO from NorCal Sierras (Western USA)

handling
some good shocks
good sway-bars & good end links
good bushings/rubbers or poly
even a Torsion Bar upgrade, larger diameter like .96" HD
or bigger like 1.01" aftermarket
any or all is a great start, to make it handle better
a brake upgrade
will help to handle better too,
I'd suggest disc's upfront at a min., you could go factory stuff or aftermarket
depending on what wheel & tires you want to use, is the limitations
also
better wider wheels & stickier tires with more contact patch
(sometimes even bigger diam. wheel & taller tire has more contact patch)
