So I finally got started, removed and cleaned up the front clip, I also preped the frame and removed the motor mounts and rear ears. Upon disassembly It looks like I could use some parts. Upper ball Joint, one upper control arm snubber and the torsion bar bushings that are clamped on, the ones inbetween the adjuster and Lower control arm. Where do I find this stuff, a exploded view of this suspension would be helpful as well. TIA

Here are a few site that you will want for specs and data. I bought all my parts at Checker ( TRW) but auto zone has lower cost ( china crap) and Carquest has MooG but wants arm and leg. Hardware is found at a few different sources. Jon

 

You should be able get parts through NAPA and the places CIAF mentioned.

 

Thanks, that website is great, I checked online on checkers and I found everything except for the pivot bushings, Do they have those available do I just have to go in and make them pull out a book? I heard through the grapevine there was one unobtanium bushing for the volare and I am hoping its not the pivot bushing

 

Mopar dealer has the pivot bushings. At least they did a year or so ago anyway. Telling them you are working on an 86 Fifth Avenue may help. Dealers around here don't have 1976 parts books laying around anymore.

 

I got all the bushings from Energy Suspension

I got my upper ball joints and anti-sway bar bushings at NAPA...

 

you will be surprised what you can find on e-bay .if you need certain part #s let me now . i don't now if it is still available on the net but i found a federal mogal site that listed moog and trw part #s . and i have kept the info in my files .

 

NAPA was my best source. Steering idle arm in stock. 5th ave parts for rotors 86.
