    Dude, no one is perfect. Don’t beat yourself up over it. You do great work. Great video by the way.

    Great video. I am deep in this same stuff with my ‘74 Challenger. My driver’s side torsion bar was a #&@! to get out. I have a bent strut rod and think I am going to replace with Firm Feel adjustable rods. Should give me a little more alignment adjustment. Next up is getting the old LCA bushings pressed out. Thanks again… this is super helpful!

      Thanks Hal. I have videos on the LCA’s too. Those are always a lot of fun. Lol.

    I really like this step by step build series. Great job showing the ins and outs, even when mistakes are made or you get bad parts. Really shows how much work it is to build one these cars. I'm so use to working on 72-93 Dodge trucks, Most of all of this is foreign to me. Great Job Jonny!

    With the strut rod bolts removed and the pivit pin nut removed,just pry and tap the lower control arm to the rear and the torsion bar will practically fall out. Be sure to remove the torsion bar clip first. Nice video.

      Good idea Rock. I think that’ll work. Next time. And thanks man.

      You’re welcome Sparkin, thanks for watching the videos. ManciniRacing.com has the front end tool kit. Get the whole kit if you can afford it. It’ll make your life easier. I think eBay too.

    Yeah that's how I beat that bolt/arm at spinning. I left everything loose until car was back on the ground and then tightened all bolts down. ALSO Do you Torque your Suspension? I have a Friends that say no just tighten and cotter pin and "Old Timer" Friends that say its a must and CAR will feel totally better if you do cuz all the bushing will be compressed to equal strength witch effects and improves the ride. I didn't Torque mine but i think im gonna go back and try it. There's Suspension Torque specs in the Service Manual so i figured they gotta be there for a Reason?
