Ready to begin the front suspension upgrade

This will be the last project on my 74 (at least for now). I've already completed the rear coil over conversion, installed the 3.6, and finished the interior. The car could use a paint job, but that has to wait. My package from Clint at Rebel Racing arrived earlier in the week. I also have front wheel bearings and new calipers:



More to come.

Do you eliminate the torsion bars with those coil overs?

How much reinforcing do you have to do to the top strut mount area to do this?

TBs will be eliminated. The only reinforcement is a strut tower brace to tie the two together.
