i know its been discussed before but i couldnt find it in the search (kinda slow) so who drops i beam axles, and whats the average cost?
There is a hamber known as "55 Mercury" and he posted this last year: I will drop your I-beam axle or sell you one. Dropping most axles like F-1, F-100 Ford Pickup, Chevy 1946-59 and 37-47 Ford car and more. Web sight is www.droppedaxles.com or call 405-416-3080 Will give 10% off to Alliance Members If that don't work try: www.roadsters.com andthen look up axles.
Check out Dave Mann's www.roadsters.com .He's able to drop them ,drill them and finish them with 1500 grit abrasives for chroming.......It's worth a look.
