Looks like a great swap from the stock setup.
other than tubular uppers and strut bars to carry the weight of the coil holding the front up, what shock is needed? obviously a coil over type and I guess you can use your own length too
65lbs sounds great too !


I run a Afco da shock with 5 in stroke. I run one designed to fit a factory mopar in stock location. I believe my shock is part number 3850m but can’t remember for sure. If you are really serious I can go n my garage and get it for you.


THANKS, im pretty sure I have those AFCOS, ( I had them on my car for a while) they are threaded also to take a coil over spring and I still have the hardware they came with to put a coil spring....HOWEVER I replaced them with SANTUFFS that so far are working really good for me. When I make this swap im going to have to buy new shocks that's all. This will work great for me as losing 65 lbs will really help a lot to get under the min for Ultra Street. FInally I would be able to move weight around in the car


....BAD A$$ STREET CAR.....

That is what I have on my car and I talked to Tory last night and he said they will work. His setup moves the shock mount on the LCA closer to the ball joint than the factory location. I am verifying a few things on my car today as far as ride height and setting the engine back and if everything checks out I am going give him the green light tonight to make me one. up
