[1974dodgecharger]

Its old, too much bump steer, among other things.  She gets hotchkis tomorrow 

[JB400]

And to think, we was almost feeling sorry for you


Looking forward to seeing those on there now

I'm anxious to get those UCA's as well.  Are you going to be installing the other Hotchkis pieces as well, like the strut and steering rods?  That way, you only have to get an alignment once?  That's the way I'm looking at it...

[1974dodgecharger]

Had to grind some things on car and hotchkis parts but fits like a charm. Now im missing a bolt camber had to order another 

[ACUDANUT]

Nice, what did that run yea ?

[1974dodgecharger]

690 with 20 dollar summit bucks.....I searched and searched for months to find a deal and none.

[WHITE AND RED 69]

Nice! Don't they just look cool installed.   

People always say the price is insane but when you see them in person you can tell why they are worth the extra cost.

[myk]

When I think about the benefits those parts provide the cost sorta' vanishes from sight, IMO...

[1974dodgecharger]

Titally myk, hell the front and rear sway bar made the car a totally differwnt animal m I re fun to drive instead of a big boat. Shicks, leaf springs , torsion bars, im almost done juat need end links and brace bars then ill be complete.

You got your front sway bar in finally?

[1974dodgecharger]

Yeah after I think 3 months lol.  My coworker and friend we finally both had time to do it...it's awesome.  It has to be welded that's why.

Ugh.  I'm not looking forward to welding on my frame...

Not bad at all.   

[ACUDANUT]

You had to weld in your sway bar ?

[myk]

Yup, the Hotchkis front sways have brackets that have to be welded in...

[ACUDANUT]

Hmmm.

It's not bad at all mine looks like it came like that. 

[ACUDANUT]

Why can't the original sway bars work ? Are the aftermarket ones, that much better ?

[moparsr2fast]

I think it has to do with the rigidity of the part, and the change in geometry the new pieces provide. Looks good 74

I'm sensing a troll post but I'll respond anyway: bigger bar=more roll control...

I get queasy when it comes to permanently altering the frame; it took me a good hour to finally drill the holes in the rear rails for the sway bar.  I guess I never got over that accident even though the car has.  In any case, I'll be following your lead '74...
