67' Dart - Swaying

My 67' Dodge Dart sways excessively when going over bumps, dips and road
Raised surfaces. I have added a front sway bar and shocks but still sways.

I've been advised that stiffening the frame may help. Has anyone come
Across this issue?

I appreciate your advise.

Thank You

Up grade the suspension. New springs, Torsions, and what not. Get ride of all that old stuff. You will hate the bill, but you will love the ride and be happy you did it.

Thanks RacerHog! Appreciate the info.

I've been thinking about springs, but the car does not have springs. I've been looking at installing coilover shocks. I'll look into torsion bars see if it will help.

Thanks again for your advise. Appreciate it!

I think its street freaks that have suspensions for the A body.
At the very least it could use a stiffer ride, larger sway bars etc. plus good bushings and alignment.

Call firmfeel.com or check their website.
Bob is right, you won't like the bill, but you might like the ride.

Did the Back side get swapped out also? IF not, Get rid of that old stuff...
Their are some great products out there to make the ride much better...
