    just got a good deal on a aftermarket dropped tube axle out of a 37 Cheby truck with paralell leaves, what is the best way to convert this? Single or 1/4 elipt? I searched and found that a 4-bar setup is needed but not a good write up. Can someone point me in the right direction or show me some pics of rods running paralell springs up front cuz right now I think they're ugly. Thanks.

    great pics, and thanks. My axle doesn't have holes to mount the radius rods, can I drill and sleeve some?

    and do have any pics of how your shackle is mounted to your axle?
