Are '73 Charger torsion made of unobtainium?

[Hilljack68]

That's just weird! I checked PST, Mancini's and Summit Racing. None of them list a single torsion bar for the '73. On each website, I punched in my '68 Coronet... boom, there they are! Any one else finding this? I mean, they're not even listed as "out of stock".

I believe the highest sales numbers for the old Chargers were 73/74, so you'd think they'd be offered on all the major sites.

Are you guys finding them anywhere?

I thought 73 B up used a goofy hook style TB or is that F body, nothing like 72 and down stuff, and if so, likely why OP cannot locate, meaning it has nothing to do with material so much as design differences and lack of market demand.
Please Correct me if I am wrong here

Edit yes I am apparently wrong, the linked Firm feel site lists 73 b body bars

Try Magnum Force

Magnum Force Mopar Torsion Bars

Also, 1973 had the highest sales of Chargers out of all the Charger Generations. I do believe it was over 118,000

Ok, Magnum Force may have just explained it. If I'm reading it correctly, the same 41" bars fit all 66-74 B bodies and all E bodies.

66-72B 70-74 E
73up B are longer

That is wrong. 73-74 bars are longer.

73 up bars are 43.5" 72 down will not fit. Added a link for my comment above.

So apparently, their website needs fixed:
