I agree thats the best connection I've seen yet.Just wanted to get some more ideas and don't wanna be a copycat.Thanks for the info and time.Greatly appreciated.

 

You new guys REALLY need to check out the Tech Archives. Great stuff there. Here's how Paul did it.


Start from post # 49:

Using a '37 to '40 alxe and bones, set your axle and split bones up so you have a 5 1/2" to 6" gap between it and the front crossmember. Center your Model A spring in the gap, drill holes in the bones to accept Model A spring perches, build a crossmember spring perch pitched 5 degrees up from the top ofthe side rails and weld the A perches to the bones. Nothing to it. It's been done that way since the '30's. Hard to come up with something that hasn't already been done.

 

Thanks for all the good info.I'm new to the hamb ,i've learnd alot and i've got alot to learn.Lovin it!

 

See, you guys are all thinking front axle and I was thing rear.......
