Installing FIRM FEEL INC.'s C-Body Front Suspension Kit on 1970 Plymouth FURY Project MARSHA 

Thanks for bringing Firm Feel to my attention. I have been in search of quality suspension products for my 69 Plymouth Fury III. Front and rear Sway Bar kit.... here I come!!

Thanks for posting this video. There's not many Firm Feel videos out and this has me glad that I ordered their front end kit for my M-Body Fifth Avenue. While my lower control arms are still in good shape, I'm hopeful they'll design a replacement for those. My steering and suspension is nearly complete, but I'm also having a fuel injection system installed to replace the lean burn carburetor system at the same time. Once that's all finished the plan is to enjoy it for a summer, then have the differential upgraded and refresh the rear suspension. Loved the review!

I'm a Brit and the E and B bodies are the most common here - I've grow up with seeing them on TV and at shows. But I own an A body and the C body is my second favourite of them all, especially the 70 Fury and Polara 4 door models.

Mopar!!!! Plymouth Fury convertible is very cool.

I bought the Firm Feel tubular upper control arms for my F body 80 Aspen R/T because I could not find a factory new or rebuilt set at the time. The Firm Feel was a life saver for me! Great video guys! 💯👍

Thanks for posting this vid. Now i can see how to do my '71

I've reached the age where, although I always wanted the Hurst edition Chrysler, I'd be proud to drive any C body, especially a station wagon. Even though I'm more of a truck guy, My 57 D-100, is mostly '69 Fury. Front clip, 8 3/4 rear, wiring, and drive train. Did replace the 318, for a 340 back in the mid 80's. I love following other peoples projects, getting tips and tricks.

As you showed here, the front drums have fins on the face on 68-69 C bodies. This makes it difficult to mount wheels other than the 15x 5 1/2 inch plain wheels that came on them. I found that factory 15 inch 1970+ C body Road Wheels ( the little slot ones with trim rings and bolt on center hubs, not the B body 5 spoke type) fit best. B body Rallye wheels are close to fitting. I believe they would fit with either spacers ( which loses the hub centering and should be avoided) or by milling down the tops of the fins on the drums. It may easier to find front disks if you don't have access to a mill. I find that C bodies handle better with a 6 1/2 inch wheel even if the tire is narrow enough to fit on a 5 1/2.

Nothing wrong with a C body, I’ve 2 65 Fury’s, ones a sport Fury coupe, the other, a Fury1 wagon here in the U.K. WAGON IS A 383 which I’m replacing with a hot 440 and later 727 with the important ‘cope’ upgrades, the Sport Fury is getting a 528 gen 2 Hemi with a Hemi A833 4 speed and a Dana 60. A pair of wild dry dockers! I’m very interested in the front suspension upgrades as both are street cars, why? Coz I can and I’m bored of the same old same old B and E bodies, plus I love the stacked headlamps, bit thanks for the heads up on those upgrades, I’m seriously looking into it, along with disc brake upgrades.🤠👍

That's a nice looking Plymouth, I love those C Bodies! I didn't realize Firm Feel made suspension kits for C Bodies, do you know if there's a kit that works for fuselage Imperials?

If you can find good thicker torsion bars, sway bar , and possibly shocks, I'd like to see that upgrade. What did you mean when you said you "don't have sway"?

Firm feel rules!

Kevin , sure wish I'd met you at Moparty last year. GREAT channel ! I have a "Marsha" also . I've put a 496 in her with a 3.55 rear gear. I hope to see you at Moparty this year, thanks for the tutorials !! I was thinking about bringing my car to Moparty but I saw no Furys at each event other than yours.

When I worked in a GM dealership back in the late 70's the mechanics always folded over one cotter pin tab and cut the other off also, like the factory

Add the Factory Sway Bar👍

Reminds me of driving my 73 Monoco. Really needed shocks.

FFI has a great product line up & rep. I lived in the PNW for decades before moving to NC a few years back. I remember when Dick owned & ran it, to give you an idea.

I need to do this with my 72 fury.

Love it! Whats the next C body project car :)

Kevin, question at about 12:35 in the video when you guys flex the steering shaft, is the steering box still bolted to the sub-frame or loose? If its still bolted in that is TOO MUCH flex in the mounting.

There are a few things you should do next. One is to read the E-Boogers Mopar Action magazine article "Pump it Down" lowering the pump pressures. Easy to do and makes the steering feel much better. Two is to gusset the lower sub frame. When you pull the 'TEEN' out, drop the sub frame and sand blast it and weld some gussets in. Paint it 'Cast Iron' gray. Your steering box flexes around too much. The Idler arm bolt boss flexes too much. The upper control tabs flex too much. Lower control arms flex too much. A simple plate welded on helps a lot. These 1950's front end designs can be made to feel like a modern Rack&Pinion set up. Not sure if anyone makes HUGE Torsion bars for C-Barges. But I'd put the biggest bar in and add a leaf to the rear to match. Bilstein shocks at 4 corners. I can send some pictures of how to do the gussets. Just need an email addy.

I need help I have a 1970 Oldsmobile 98 convertible C body will these work with my car

Why Didn't You Put A Sway Bar On

What? Forward caster???

Perhaps down the road add the rear sway bar like i did on my '71 Fury ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hvvRUkPWzXk.html

No better way to waste money than to fix up this old turd. Better move is to put that money in a 401(k) plan or IRA.
