I am planning on swapping my /6 225 for a 318. I located some .087 torsion bars from a 1970 Duster and am curious as if they would fit my Dart?

I have posted about this earlier but could not locate the post for some reason...

Your help is appreciated

Dart and Duster are both A bodies

Thanks for the reply I know they are both A's but I am wondering if the 1970 bars will fit my 1975. I have only replaced stock, same year replacement torsion bars.

Outstanding info Moe and 440. I was assuming the 1970 torsion bars would fit but with the info you gave me makes me feel better about buying them. The guy only wants $45 for them...

Thanks again

removing and installing them is not easy. you need to get better info from the experts. but ill add , be for you back the adjusting screw be sure the threads are clean. if they are not it can strip the threads when you back them out. i found out the hard way. but DO talk to some one that knows how to do. BEFORE you do it.
