Can anyone explain to me how to tighten up that front end so I don't feel like a weebles wobbling when I'm driving. I realize that's how 60's cars drive.... but other than buying a $700 "Grab a Track" suspension kit.

Any articles out there explaining it or some advice?

A sway bar will take away a lot of body roll if thats what your referring to as "weeble wobbling"

So something like this?

Well that was more than i was thinking, but that kit would do you a lot of good. That will stiffen the whole car, not just the front end. It's got a rear sway bar and subframes too...so you'll definitely have a tigher ride if you get that.

Sooooo... how hard is it to put something like that kit on? Say for a guy who can change the oil/plugs.... and uhh.. change a tire?[sm=hiya.gif]

The sway bars aren't too difficult...the rear is a little tougher than the front imo. If the subframe connector is a bolt-in type, then you could probably do that yourself to. A lot of people have them welded in though for additional strength, so if you want them welded in and you can't handle a mig, then I would have someone do that for you.

i thought he was talking about tightening the steering box or something.

I interpreted his "weeble wobbling" as bump steer, or body roll, which could be fixed by what I suggested, but looking at the steering box is another idea as well.

Yeah, It is a VERY good idea to sturdy up the front end also. Get a monte carlo bar as well. I highly recommend them.
