RE: {Chrysler 300} Re: Can someone do me a favor over the next few days.

Hi Jamie,

I am scratching my head. I will have to check the bars up at the house this weekend. I could have sworn that I measured them, and they were 44 inches long. Those bars cam out of a 1964 Chrysler New Yorker.

Is it possible that the New Yorker and the 300 used different length bars? Or was there a change to the subframe in 1964 from 1963 and the bars are longer?

I will also have to get under the 300K here in San Francisco on the cold wet concrete and see if I can get an in-car measurement.

Jamie, can you take a caliper and get me a very exacting OD on the 607 bar?

Thanks, James

If anyone has a set of torsion bars out and accessible for a 1963-1964 Chrysler, can you measure the length and note the bar number?

I have a paperwork conundrum. I have a set that came out of a 1964 New Yorker, and I thought I measured them, and they are 44 inches long. But my paperwork here in San Francisco says that the bars for a1963 300J, and presumable the 1964 300K, are 40 inches long. Hence the conundrum.

Also, I am still hunting for a set of 606-607 bars and if anyone has a set, they will sell please let me know.

James
