    Sway Bar Diameter

    I was going to order a front end kit from PST, and noticed it did not include the sway bar bushings. It seems there are two sizes; 15/16 and 7/8. Anyone know what is standard on a '70 GTX. I don't have calipers handy. Thanks.

    Hello everyone. After a lengthy delay, I am finally able to work on my car. Unfortunately during the time away it seems that AMD has discontinued the rear quarter lower patch panels. I have searched online but haven't found any in stock. Does anyone have a source or an idea where I could find...

    Seat Belts- What am I missing?

    Hey everyone. I cleaned up my belts with simple green and they came out great. However, much of my car came in boxes and I now realize that I seem to be missing some belts. I checked online at some vendors, but came up with different pieces depending. I assume that this is because they used a...

    Oh boy, I think I messed Up.

    The car I bought in project state had made little progress over the last 5 years. I decided this year to get it running and stopping so that I can at least drive the thing. Bugger the full resto as I have realized that I don't have time for it currently. Once I had the wiring for the engine...

    CA Dealership circa 1970

    Hey all. I received some info regarding my GTX. Apparently it was sold new at Lemers(not sure on the spelling) in Concord CA. I can't find any info on it. Does a dealership list exist that goes back to the late 60's to early 70's? Or does anyone remember a mopar dealer in the area back in the day.

    Bonus!

    Just received a gas tank for the GTX from Amazon (I know, but it is a Spectra brand tank cheaper than anywhere else due to the free shipping) and inside the box was also a new sending unit. The packing list showed new tank straps (which weren't in the box), the tank and the fuel sending unit. I...

    A Most Shocking Question(s)

    A few questions if I may. The guy before me had air shocks on the '70 GTX. One of the upper bolts securing the shock is new and incorrect. The other looks to be original. Is the one pictured correct for my car? If it is, where do i get another? Next, the FSM shows a washer between the lower...

    Is this drum toast?

    One drum, mint hardly any wear. the other drum is the same, but the holes are out of round. There is play side to side but not up and down. Can I use this drum or should I pitch it? I was thinking that if the tire is holding it tight to the axle flange, it may be OK to use. Thoughts? I can only...

    Re-Using E-Brake Cable

    Hey everyone. Being that I'm cheap, I'd like to reuse the old e-brake cables on my '70 GTX. I've cleaned them with simple green and evaoprust. The cables slide within the sleeve, though not easily. No 'two finger pull'. So my question is, how easy should the cable move? Thanks.

    New Leaf Spring Front Bushing Don't Fit

    Hey all. I got my Rock auto order today, but the front leaf spring bushing is wrong. I need a 1-1/2" diameter where the one they shipped is 2". this was listed as the correct part for my 1970 GTX w/440 and 4:10 Dana. Question, does anyone have the correct part number (AC Delco or Moog) for the...

    Leaf Spring Inspection Marks

    Just for fun I threw the end of my leaf springs in Evaporust. After a bit of cleaning 4 colors are now visible, which I thought was cool. I think I see a blue/pink on one spring and a brown/white on the other. the car in question is a '70 GTX with the Dana 60 and heavy duty suspension. Car was...

    Leaf Springs- worn out?

    Hey everyone. I'm at the point where I'm going to clean up my leaf springs while the rear is out at a shop. Just for fun, I flipped them with the eyes on the shop floor. i stood on each one and measured the deflection. The right spring deflected 1" while the left deflected 1.5". I weigh about...

    Dana with 10" drums

    Hey everyone, the '68/69 dana 60 that came in my 1970 GTX has what appear to be the 2.5" drums (no cooling fins, spring around the drum). I've pulled the rear to take it in to get rebuilt, but i'm wondering if I should attempt to covert back to 3" drums which came originally on my car. Anyone...

    Can anyone identify this drum

    The Dana under my '70 GTX is a 68-69. The car has A32 axle package. Does anyone have any idea what these drums are from originally? I tried comparing to images on Year One etc...I'm not sure if I want to try and track down proper backing plates and all associated hardware to convert to a '70 set...

    Time to buy a welder

    Always wanted a Miller 211, but they are quite pricey. Local tool place (KMS Tools) has an ESAB 215ic Rebel for a better price. I've never heard of this brand. Anyone have any experience with them? Looking to weld in some patch panels on my car plus other stuff.

    1970 GTX/RR hood turn signals-wiring question

    My car is missing the wiring from the harness to the turn signals mounted on the hood. My light harness is butchered in this area, so I don't know what the female connector looks like. I am going to order a new forward light harness from year one, but the pictures on the site for the main light...

    Hey guys. I'm planning on yanking out my Dana over the holidays so I can clean/paint the leaf springs, do the brakes, paint the housing etc...I was planning on rebuilding the Dana, but after reading Shepard's book on Chrysler rear ends, I realize that I don't have many of the specialty tools...

    I'm at the crossroads and need some advice

    Hey guys. With my garage done and everything inside organized, it's finally time to start on my 1970 GTX. I'm going to attempt to do the bulk of the work myself. I've pulled off the window and drip rail trim (both a bugger when you've never done it before) and set them aside. I'm likely going to...
