    I've had several V8 60 axles. Turned down one the other day, to much money.

    Thanks Gary!

    Thank you!

    They're definitely out there, but I had to search for quite awhile before I found one that I thought was "affordable" and even at that it's got its problems. Past up quite a few for $500+ over the years, just can't get myself to spend that kind of dough on an unknown...

    That's pretty much how I always thought about it.

    I looked through my pics and I don't have anything up close. There are some shots on about post 132 of my build thread, ( https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum...-body-a-build-thread-with-pics.1197541/page-5 ). It is basically the old California Custom Roadsters style overslung spring setup. My problem was that it was too low so I swapped the reverse eye spring for a stocker and it sets perfectly now. My phone is messed up and I can't post pics now or I'd shoot some details for you. I've built a lot of these and if your planning on doing something similar, shoot me a PM with your info and I'll make some templates and mail them to you.
