52-59 Ford Group was my hangout spot. Later.
I have heard that rack and pinion steering arms are shorter than the steering box ones. I've been away from the alignment game for 30 years, but...
Excellent work and detail.:cool:
I don't care for the look. Not my car not my heartburn ;)

I guess we didn't teach them very well.:(
Welcome, very nice car.
Can you get another 1/4 to 1/2 turn at number 2?
Been following and enjoying. Repairing floor pans right now but hope to wake up the Y this year.
I think the Reverend had a video on this. Something like a distributor from a '60 pickup with a Y and an Accel conversion. Disclaimer, I watch far...

Mine had a 235/70 15, I swore like a sailor getting them off. :mad:
:cool: The History Guy is good YouTube'n
If I was in your shoes, a spacer, a grade 8 bolt and a prayer. Hope it works out for you. That green looks good!

:cool:Happy Birthday young fella:)
Merry Christmas to all!
