Thanks Kid for the info. I'll check my driveshaft asap. As for the caster/camber gauge, it's from Speedway Motors. It's a DECO brand, purple aluminum with a huge magnet on the end. Bout $120.

Ok, the car is level and up on stands, the front tires are off. I have a caster/camber gauge mounted to the center hub. I've already set them both. Now with the string method, I have a straight line from the rear center hub to the front center hub. The jackstands I'm using which the string...

When I measured toe on both sides (the string method), the passenger side rear wheel and front wheel were spot on. The driver side front wheel was an inch further out than the rear. I just measured my rear wheels and it looks like they are fitting square in the fenderwells. So now I'm...

I appreciate the input. While adjusting my toe however I ran into a problem. The rear end that I had welded by a shop years ago is exactly 1" off center. While cruising at 55 I have a nice intermittent vibration. I'm wondering the faster I go, could the driveshaft decide to just tear itself from...

Thanks for the help. After a lot of researching I finally got it. It's not right at the specs that Magnumforce recommends but it's pretty darn close. I ended up with -1* camber with +3* caster. Caster is mainly important for cars with manual vs power steering correct? Doesn't really...

Evening all. I have the complete tubular front end from Magnumforce racing and am trying to adjust the camber and caster. These are the older upper arms with the threaded rod ends to adjust camber. I'm using the stock eccentric cam bolts for caster adjustment. Car is level with front tires...

Yup, I bought their column, collapsable shaft, and a D steering wheel. Great fit and finish.

Sweet ride. Didn't see what rear suspension you're running. Your front/rear weight ratio is giving me hope with my setup. Keep at it brother.

Preciate the compliments. The hood is a 3" cowl with '14 Mustang hood vents. Good aero and really gets the heat out.

Nah the official height of a ricer wing is at least 3 feet. It's also non functional and adds 100 hp.

Unfortunately all the old pics are in a photo album. This was all pre iPhone. The motor and tranny were stout but everything else needed work.

Does anyone know the builder of this car on YouTube titled "Viper Swapped 1968 Dodge Charger: Short Film". The guy who did it is @S.Keola36 on Instagram. Yeah I gotta create an account and all that other crap but I don't want to bother. I figured he be hanging around on this forum. Anyway...

Evening all. Just thought I'd join and share/get advice for our rides. Been wanting a Charger since the DOH. Was looking for a 69 but found a sweet 68 in 1998 that I couldn't pass up. I was 28 and had no idea what I was getting into. I figured I'd have this thing torn down and restored...
