    Hi all I just purchased a 36 ford pickup that will be getting delivered out to Cali in the next week or so. In the meantime I would like to purchase a few parts to help lower it that way when it gets here I am ready to start working on it.

    I was told to get a drop axle from super bell...

    Would love some info on what else I will need to lower the front and back. Right now it is currently all original stock.

    Thanks in advance!

    I have a buddy that put together a beautiful '35 pheaton. He used a bell tube on the stock wishbone up front with a monoleaf spring, and a monoleaf in the rear with tube shocks all around. Tires went to 5.60x15 on the front and 7.60x15 on the rear.
    I know there are several that don'tlike the monoleafs here, but damn that car rode and handled nice! It's now happily running around New Zealand.

    I saw your post about getting it back on the road. What did you end up going with for the stance? Did I miss a build thread ?
