If you push it to 75 that opens the door for M-2 FRONT LEGS! That's just wrong boss.
I for 1 say NO. Keep it at 65. Ther's enough other sights for the Late Model Junk to be posted on. This sight stays very active as is. It will...

For those of you who think or have been told that the 49-51 Merc PP is the same, that information is Wrong. 49-50 is the same. 51 for Merc is a...
Nice knowing Real Hot Roders are still out there.

I love the HAMB but,, For every problem you bring to the board you will get an unbelievable amount of options. Some sound, most not. In this case...
This was my advice to B-B several days ago. I firmly disagree. B-B was also confused with my explanation as to my opinion (I've only been doing...
I believe we touched on pinion angle at that time. The vibe wasn't there initially and slowly came on. You also hadn't mentioned the ride height...
Changing the Pocket depth of the crossmember won't change the compression or set ride height of the spring.
The world of, "Hay, I have an Idea" has some remarkable results.
I like things that are mechanical over power assist.
I've learned that really old parts that use paper style gaskets and no longer on the shelf is why they make sheet gasket material. I can make one...
When doing an electric trunk latch release, I've been mounting the electric part on the Body side and the catch to the Trunk Lid. Keeps from...

In your posted photo of the Dog Bone in place and both axles in place the Axle to the right was quite short of the measurement marker. What did...
A little more info as to exactly what kind of Front End you have would help. Also have you ever had a real alignment done to it? Caster angle is...
Something to just think about. I know lowering blocks are traditional and I grew up in that time frame. Everything had a stick shift trans in them...
