    My 69 Bee has some rust cancer on the drivers side only, the rest of it is solid. Anyone use a repair cap to fix one? Of course the major players’ websites state “coming soon.” Looked on eBay and nothing. Anyone know of an available part? Guess I could always cut the rust out and weld...

    Steering column alignment issue

    I noticed on my steering column, 69 Super Bee, a misalignment it looks like. On the turn signal side, the gap is very very small. On the gear selector side, the gap is massive. I think this might be the issue causing the horn to beep when I turn right. I’ve loosened everything and trying to...

    Started my leaf spring install........

    I started my MP XHD leaf spring install today, and it was more challenging than I thought getting the springs off. I recently put new Bilstein shocks on and the rubber bushing must still be nice and sticky because that was a PIA just getting the shock bottom off. To hell with that, so I took...

    Fitting front poly bushings in leaf springs?

    After reading the Mopar Muscle article about rebuilding leaf springs and seeing them use Energy Suspension poly bushings (MN41001G), I bought the poly bushings for my new MP XHD leafs.

    Steering wheel slop - how to fix?

    My '69 Super Bee with power steering has quite a bit of slop/play in the steering wheel.

He looked at the power steering gearbox and...

    Just spent today installing new QA1 upper control arms after my driver side upper bolt joint blew out on Sunday and left me stranded. Went pretty easy. The broken side of course was the tough side as this procedure was new to me. Getting the new arms in was a PIA and they just wouldn't go in...
