falcon gasser front end(old magazine clips)

when i picked up my straight axle from "voodoo kustoms" last night roger let me borrow this old mag with an article on doin a straight axle on a ford falcon..i thought it would be cool to share here so i scanned it.enjoy

 

Very cool I love the G***er and I love Falcons.

 

hell yeah.me too..ive been obsessed with them for years..finally getting the chance to attempt a build.

 

Wow thats pretty much the way i did my falcons front end

 

thats pretty cool..whats that chrome thingy on the front though?can you post a pic of youre front cross member?

 

Its an air foil.I can get some pictures this weekend when I get to my shop.

 

Bump steer city with that cross steer rod at that angle!

 

right on.thanks

 

Man, is that steep or what?......bounce, turn...bounce, turn...bounce, bounce, turn, turn.......yuk.....

 

Yeah that's what i thought when saw it as well.I mounted mine coming from the bottom and heated and bent my pitman arm down to try to keep it level and clear my oil pan.

 

pictures as promised

 

right on thanks dude...yeah youre set up looks just like the pics i posted...do you have all that crazy "bump steer" those guys are talking about?

 

It drives and steers well,my draglink isnt at a hard angle like the one in the article. I made the cross member over a year ago.I wish i would have hat that article to go by. lol

 

ahhh.right on...what did you make the cross member out of?

 

3/16 plate for the sides and 1/4 for the top.

 

right on.

 

Cool!

 

I know it's an old thread but does anyone know which magazine ran this article? What year & issue?
