I just realized that i haven't shared any pics of, not finished, but kind of race ready T-A-B. So here are couple taken after the really wet race....
I do drop them. But 37-41 axles only to 3" drop. More than 3" drop will bring king pin too close to perch bolt IMO. I even have one in stock...
You got that right! And even it looks like sunday driving, behind the wheel it was scary as hell ;) Somehow it did not run as smooth on higher...
Here are couple of runs. As you see, it got pretty wet over there. I was almost slowest one and lost all races, but oh boy sure i had fun! And i...

Not much progress with this one, but some anyway. Made seat mounting and anchoirs for seat belt not NHRA approved ;). Like to have a bench seat...
Or maybe Ford just made a mistake in first place. I know you do not understand a word of pic below, but it is official Ford Motor Company of...
