Hot Rods Heat Dropping a Straight Axle with @NostalgiaSid!

I got the opportunity to hang out with Sid and watch the process of heat dropping a straight axle! There was a lot more to it than just heating it and pushing it where you want!! Check out my video! Sid is a top notch dude!!

5 hours posted and only 1 comment? I thought the Hamb was all about traditional hot rod stuff?!?!
What's happened to this place?

 

Cool! I’ll have to watch it although have watched in person a time or twenty before. Looks like Dayton in the preview pic. I was just hanging out over there this evening.

 

Chad it’s gone to likes instead of reply’s. Sign of the times I spose.

 

Fun to watch, thanks for that. Back in about 2017 or so, I dropped off a few axles at okie Joes on my way to Chickasha swap. At that time, Joe had a nice 32 roadster body laying on its side, in the dirt in a lean to off the side of the shed, and a really nice 32 3w in the shed that had been parked for some repair about 20 years ago! My brain went blank on how someone could have the two top tiers of hot rodding old Fords just taking up space.

 

Yea I guess so. Dang shame!

Haha I figured you might have seen one at least! LOL

 

That was cool, thanks for sharing. I need to drop a 47, think I'll get ahold of Sid and talk to him about it.

 

Yeah man very cool! Thanks

 

Had my 40 front axle dropped by Sid's last year. The whole process went smooth as silk.
