Finally some c-body love

How the hell do you spell your screen name? I don't see those letters on my keyboard!

It should be ä, but somehow it shows some weird font...

Yes Ron at Magnum Force and I have been talking about c-body line for awhile and how it would be a great idea for doing some items for that line of car. Currently had the chance to arrange several test/sample c-body cars and frames to be delivered to his shop for testing and mocking his equipment to work with. I just got done last week dropping off some interchange manuals to help figure out which components will work with other cars. I even dropped off a 1978 Aspen so they can do more product testing with. Their goal at the shop is to have suspension and parts for 1962-1976 c-body cars and wagons and have as much bolt in parts and minimize any welding that might be needed. Currently they have parts for their 'Transformer' line including tubular upper control arms, independent rear suspension, large size Wilwood disc brake conversions and soon heavy duty sub-frame connectors. Hopefully I will have time at the beginning of September to write an article on my experience with their new products on one of my cars.

As a lover of the 67-68 Plymouth Furys this is great. Wish this was out back when I had my vert. But, that 68 those guys did is a roach and they got 50K?

Did you say "Aspen"? Does that mean Magnum may be interested in doing an F-body suspension?

Yes, not only are they working to do the c-body line, but also looking to do the -F-body line too.

That's funny I was watching "Big Easy Motors" a couple of nights ago and they showed them installing one in a C. I made the comment then "I didn't know Magnum Force makes C-Body stuff?!" From what I saw it looked like decent piece.

That piece is the proto-type, so the one that comes out will be slightly diffrent in design. Hooeing to have a 1966 fury wagon in for testing next. They are even looking into doing Imperials too.

With the same transgender suspension?

I hope airbags will fit into that MF suspension.
C-bodies are pain in ass to install air suspension.

No air bags avalible, they use Viking shocks.

Alterkation already does an F body version of their system. They don't advertise it, but they have made a few.

So that's a typical 4 link set-up, not clear in the pic, what/how is axle located?

I'm not sure I would say it's 'typical' style since everything except the housing is bolt in the rear frame rails. I believe the only welding required is the housing. Not completely sure, so you could go to their site and check it out or email them for tech question.

They started on mocking up info on F-body suspension last week and is looking pretty good. When they get done it, I'll take some more pics and see what header clearances will be like.

It has the diagonal track locator underneath, think ladder bar style "drag" setup.

Their shop uses jackstands and floor jacks?
This is their high tech fabrication facility ??

just what the mopar world needs. more junk out there from magnumfarce.
