    Want to know what you think.
    I have some left over parts enough to make a 35 Ford Truck. Question is Split bones,4" drop axel, reversed spring, front. Stock reversed spring, split stock reinforsed bones, 9" ford with coil overs for fine tuning, maybe raise the spring mount for ride hight, in the rear.
    Will it ride OK or am I wasting my time
     
  2. It should ride fine. There are thousands of rods out there running an identical setup.

    It will be way cool and very comfy down the road. Just ditch the mechanical brakes up front (but im sure you know that already).
