    Tie rod/torsion bar issue.

    What am I missing here? I have looked up in my manuals to make sure it’s hooked up correctly. Cannot figure out why the top of the tire rod is hitting the torsion bar.

    Easy way to get new rubber seals on your torsion bars

    I know Ranchita well. It’s a nice little hide away before you drop into Boreggo Springs. Hope it helps when the time comes to do yours.

    Easy way to get new rubber seals on your torsion bars

    I don’t. I honestly don’t see a lot of B bodies around town. I’ve seen one coronet RT near my house and a couple years ago I saw a charger 500 out at a car show quite a ways from my house.

    Easy way to get new rubber seals on your torsion bars

    Well, although it’s a good idea it’s even a better idea to get the torsion bars slid through the torsion boxes prior to bolting the K frame into the car. Once that’s in it’s not possible to slide the torsion bar through The front side. so now the seals have to come off so that I can put them...

    I skimmed through a lot of this but my basic thoughts related to physics are the energy Has to go somewhere. so it either goes into your car raising up so you’re losing the energy that actually raises the car, or you somehow control the car raising up and force that energy into the wheels which...

    Master cylinder

    Cleaning up all my brake parts. Today I media blasted the master cylinder hoping it was an original. I don’t think it is. It says, WAGNER LOCKHEED 75710. I assume this is an aftermarket replacement. Looks like this.
