Thanks all! its been sitting since the early 90's so i was about......4 yeras old when it was parked? lol. all i did was put a battery in it and ran a fresh fuel feeder line to it and it strated up and ran everything works on it and it was a amazing moment in life when that dash lit up !!! Sadly tho my lack of mopar skills has showed its evil head. i was ATTEMPTING to replace ball joints an found out they do not press in and out. now i need a new upper A arm and cannot find one or any information on a compatable swap from any other mopars. If you guys have any ideas or know of a website or swap i can do PLEASE! let me know!!

I can't answer your questions but give Murray a call. I'm sure he can point you in the right direction. The car is a beauty BTW:wav:
