WTB need help with 1974 charger torsion bars....

[spideyinblack]

Hey all...I'm lookin for some advice and possibly parts if anyone has them. I have a 74 charger that had a factory 318, however when I purchased it, it was traded out with a 383. Thus I have a bit of squirrling with the car and am trying to see if getting a larger torsion kit would help. My torsion bars are back up to level.

So first of would i need larger torsion bars....and if so what size should/could I go up to??

and if I do need such parts, is anyone out there willing to sell them???

thanks

Mike

I "Believe" you need a set of torsion bars from a 400 car. Years ago I went from a 340 to a 413 max Wedge in my 1973 Charger, and put a set of 440 torsion bars in it. Of course, that was when you can buy the torsion bars in a junkyard for $20.

Firm Feel makes the longer bars for 73-79. Firmfeel.com

Good time to decide if you want to replace or upgrade the iso bushings which will help with handling. They come in stock rubber, poly, or solid cast/aluminum. There are also a few tricks with the rear end mounts which will keep the car from crab walking.
