Projects Good combo for a low cab?

Waiting for parts for the model t,coe needs a new frame and couldn't get someone to sandblast the half of cab for the other project.
Sooo pulled this in the garage and started to mock the engine...I think I need to raise the engine a bit and I'll have to trim the grille on the bottom.
I also need to straighten My tie rod

 

how is that axle mounted to the springs?

 

You can see in the second picture.
I used the '35 suspension but reversed every the springs as suggested and used the u bolts from it

 

Thanks, now I see how that works...

 

I've been buying stuff as I find it...
17 artillery wheels to clear the frame from dropping first,a 93 s10 t5,and hopefully some 17" tires.
Now to do some research.

 

If I reversed the fronts I assume I have to reverse the rear springs also??

 

If you are going to run the rear as underslung, yes you will.

I wouldn't be investing a lot of money in wheels and tires until I figured out exactly how low it is going to sit with all the weight on it but my guess is that you will be hunting for at least 18 inch wheels. The American Underslungs had pretty large diamerter wheels on them. When you look at bottom of fame to center of hub distances that car would be right on the ground with 18 inch wheels.

 

I got 17" artilleries that will put me about 1/2" below the frame..
We die like men

 

As the state patrolman here told me, as long as nothing on the chassis catches the pavement with 4 flat tires and I can push it off the road you are good. That was when he had pulled me over when my truck sat like you see it in the avatar. I've always run 14 inch wheels on the front and that didn't help the scrub line though.
