i just picked up a 3.3L Dynasty. I plan on using the MC and the front brakes as an upgrade on my sundance. Is there anything else I can use from the Dynasty, swaybar, springs..? i was thinking possibly if the dynasty came with stiffer springs i could use those and cut them to lower my car without the worry of it bottoming out. anybody done anything like this?

swap the rear springs - more cargo capacity, also stiffer. if the the dynasty has the newer k frame and your shadow does not, swap 'em! newer knuckles have bolt in bearings (instead of press in). obviously the front brakes and m/c. stay away from the prop vavle on these cars - not aggressive enough for anything smaller than a C body. grab the 15" space saver!!!

other obvious items - fuses, bulbs, extra chassis fasteners, spare wheels, steering wheel (color), cruise control equipment?, low mileage parts worth saving that will swap like shocks, etc, etc, etc....

a dynasty is also a heavier car, so using them in my car they would be stiffer.

Beware-I'm pretty sure the Dynasty/Imperial/N'Yorker K-Frame/Arms are the ones that are a little bit different and cause people to regret thinking about the k-frame upgrade in the first place. Double check compatibility before using that Dynasty K-Frame
