I have a nice "driver" 1964 Plymouth Sport Fury. Stock 383, automatic, 3.23 rear, disc brakes all around, torque thrust wheels. Front end is mostly original and wore out. Looking for options to make even more of a pleasure to drive. I put a Hotchkis in my 69 Coronet and very happy with that, but I do not think they make one for 64 Plymouth. I am not looking for the cheapest thing out there, but also not looking to put $6-8 k into front end. Anybody have any advice for a winter project for me? Thanx, Jack.
 
Tubular upper control arms to get as much caster as you can. A good set of shocks , qa1 , Viking, bilstien. Boxed lower control arms for strength . Sway bar. And firm feel or steer and gear upgraded steering box. It’s really that simple :lol:, Firm Feel might be your only option being an early B body.

My 68 GTX is just that, I have it jacked up in the rear 70s style and probably too small of a front tire , I can still confidently take corners , it’s super stable in a straight line , and it doesn’t jar you around like a dump truck
 
Everything Cheapsunglasses said and add in some 1.03" PST torsion bars.
 
Go with Quality , Stock Replacements —- they were fine for the first 50 - 60 years of these vehicles….

I can supply you with all 17 items in Top Notch Quality for under $ 1000……
