He's been kicked off for a while now.... Have you heard the story about him getting me chased down the alley in my Pajamas at 1:30 in the morning by some old guy in a truck the other day? Its funny as hell....
Ok boys, This is gonna be good. Andre! Where's your pics? Are ya building your sedan now? Did ya get your late models paint fixed? later
Just outta curiosity, but I see only two inches of allowable axle travel with the body sides, and at least 12 inches of spring travel. Id figure youll eventually have at least four inces of shock travel. In a pick-up, I can see it not mattering, but with a sedan, Why would you not make a bracket for the sping to set behind of or in front of the axle and get rid of some of that kick up so youll have more interior space with the possibility of a back seat? Does the spring have to sit on top of the axle? I know on my 35, I have coil-overs and I mounted them behind the axle.
finally found the pic I was thinking of like this one leadsledmerc did http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=UBB1&Number=695466&page=27&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=14&fpart=all
Dale, I'm giving Eric a nice head start... I should have some pics by the end of the week. Flipped the Buick. It's goin to Canada. Got a nice check for the dent though...
yeah, i see what you are saying. unfortunatly that pic isn't really accurate as to how the frame sits over the axle. everything ends up at about the level of ledsleadmercs. i did lop a bit more out of the body. actually attached the body to the frame last night. when all is said and done, i will have about 6-7 inches between the axle and the frame. i'll post more pics in a few days.
