    Cannot believe the are no 4 link kits for the 1959 Galaxies. Plan was to upgrade to a bagged suspension. How can there be 4 link setups for 1956 and 1960 Galaxies but not for my 59. What am I missing, appreciate feed back.

    Can you do a truck arm? What did people do before you could just go and buy a kit? We fabbed it ourselves. We looked at what other people had done or used on somthing like that.

    Not a lot of market for much of anything specifically for a 59 Ford as far as custom suspension pieces go I'd think. There just aren't enough of them floating around being modified with bags or other custom suspension pieces. Time to get creative or find a kit you can adapt.

    Yep, I've been looking for one for years too!
    It's not that one couldn't be fabricated but for us guys that aren't to handy with a welder, a kit would be nice!
     
  6. I'm considering a truck arm set up for my '59 Custom down the road. You may want to talk to these guys.

    There's a guy on here with a '62 Mercury wagon that did a very nice 4-link swap. I'll try to attach a picture.
