1969 C Body Suspension HELP!!

Greetings one and all. I am looking for some info on suspension upgrades for a 1969 Plymouth Fury. As these lead sleds are not as popular as the A and B body muscle cars, I seem to have some trouble finding upgrades. I want to upgrade to disk brakes and make suspensions upgrades to make it hadle and drive better. If you have any suggestions, advice or know of any websites that offer after market upgardes for this type of vehicle, it would be greatly appreciated!!

I believe Mopar Action magazine has been doing the exact thing you want, on a 69 also, over the last few months. The disc brake upgrade is a common swap using factory parts, and info is everywhere. Here is one of the BEST Mopar brake-swap articles I have ever found. http://www.moparaction.com/Tech/archive/disc-main.html Good luck, and welcome!

In the article I think they upgraded the front sway bar to a beefier unit, and also added a rear sway bar. That makes a BIG difference in those "prarie-schooners"! This is a great forum,and great folks. Hope ya stick around! Scott

Welcome to the forum!

The best place that I have found for C-Body suspension upgrades is Firmfeel. I plan on having one of their rear bars on my current Fury before the "Mopars in the Park" show, in Sacramento, in June!
I have installed a rear sway bar on an earlier C that I had and it's like day and night!
