    Front End Rebuild - Firm Feel or any other options?

    Thanks for your response and concern. During my research on what was needed to do a front disc conversion on my C-body I came across Wayne, "theRamMan". I watched all his videos on Mopar disc brakes and contacted him to ask questions about a disc conversion and the required booster. I told him I...

    YES, YES, YES!!! Firm Feel Rear Sway Bar

    Hey Don, So sorry for the late reply - just 31 months late :( Don't think I can offer much information that would be helpful. From the receipt there's no description as to what was done only a total bill of $280 with $140 of extras (nothing written down). My dad probably told them what he...

    Front End Rebuild - Firm Feel or any other options?

    Thanks for your compliment on my inputs. I really enjoyed sharing the work I've done to the 66TC and sharing those experiences. I'm slowly downsizing and since 2019 this will be the 3rd car sold; 65 Cadillac Coupe DeVille, 74 Fiat Spider and now the 66 TC. When my dad passed in 2000, I gave my...

    Front End Rebuild - Firm Feel or any other options?

    I reworked my entire suspension in 2016 and have only driven the car 1,200 miles since then. I did the '73 Front Disc Conversion and while I was at it I rebuilt the entire suspension. I was going to just change the bushings and ball joints on the original UCA, but decided to go with Firm Feels...

    Firm feel Power steering box

    Have you gotten your steering box rebuilt yet? Do you have Power Steering or Manual Steering? IMO and experience go with Firm Feel. I have a '66 TC wagon with Power Steering and had my box rebuilt with a Stage-1 in Feb of 2016. If you want more of a Rack & Pinion feel I'd suggest getting a...

    Strut bar bushings

    The Moog K7019A comes in a set of 4 bushings - all 4 are identical. My car is a '66 Chrysler TC Wagon and it takes the same bushings as your Monaco. As long as your 4 OEM WASHERS and SLEEVES are in good shape, just get the K7019A from Amazon for $10.79 -...

    Just browsing through PST's Summer 2018 Catalogue and I came across this kit. It's a C Body Disc Brake Conversion Kit using Wilwood's new Pro-Series Front Hub Kits for Chrysler, Dodge & Plymouth 1965-1972 C Body vehicles with drum brakes; 11" rotors, new forged aluminum hubs and 4 piston...

    Rear bearing going bad?

    Same here.... I had a "howl" that bugged the heck out of me and thinking it was one or both wheel bearings I got a pair of the "Green Bearings" from Dr. Diff. For all the mechanical work I don't want to do I just bring it over to my neighbor, Will, who has a full mechanics shop in his garage...

    What car do these wheel covers go on?

    From edge to edge it's 13", so a 13" hub cap.

    What car do these wheel covers go on?

    Found these hub caps/wheel covers in dad's stash. Some Mopars he's had in the past were a '65 Valiant, '66 Belvedere, '66TC, '69 Valiant, '73 Swinger. Anyone know which cars these wheel covers were for?

    Replacing the Sway Bar Bushings

    Yes, the OEM bushings are ONE PIECE. If you want to remove to replace with the NEW TWO PIECE ones, just use a razor blade to slice the bushing horizontally with the frame. My dad in his stash of parts had a pair of factory stabilizer bushings. When I replaced the link bushings I initially...

    Strut Rod Bushing mod

    Knebel, the way to go is with Rareparts RP15450 Strut Rod Bushing. Not only do they come with the bushings, but also the large outer retainer washers and most importantly, metal sleeves (which are an upgrade to the OEM sleeve). This is what I used when I rebuilt my suspension.

    YES, YES, YES!!! Firm Feel Rear Sway Bar

    Sorry 69furyIII for the late reply. Been off the board for nearly a year dinking around with the caddy and other things. To answer your question - Yes, I kept the stock front sway bar and just added the rear bar. I changed over to RCD Bilstein shocks in the front, but the ride suffers. I echo...

    Replacing the Sway Bar Bushings

    The link below is what I got from PST (Front Sway Bar Stabilizer Links) - IMO this is the Best way to go. If you want to be a McGyver you can do as some suggest and drill out the spot welds to separate the bottom half. You'll need to size out the hole for a nut and bolt to clamp it back...

    SF-66TC's update you've all been waiting for LOL!!

    Welcome - sorry for the late reply, but been busy and haven't been active with this forum for the past couple months. Yes, 69-72 spindles are pretty plentiful, but NOT from a parts store. If you put the word out that those are what you're looking for I'm sure someone is bound to have a set...

    SF-66TC's update you've all been waiting for LOL!!

    Wow, that'll be great - hope there's no flack about what's a GM doing on the FCBO forum.... But if you feel it's ok, how about naming it "A 45 year old GM Time Capsule"
