Re: CMEDROP's Build Up

Once we had the belly of the car completely smooth, we moved on to the frame.


We took measurements and removed the leafs. From there we started to put the 8.8 diff with disc brakes in place.




We are using the front leaf mount for our lower bars on the 4link.





We are mounting the bags behind the axle. I borrowed the bags off our 51 ford project to help mock up the mounts. I will be running Airlift Dominator D2500s.

Damn, I wish my dad knew at least something about cars.... He's more inept at mechanical work than a dog.

What's that damn dog doing drinking a Budweiser? Don't you realize that it's the King of Beers? Car looks great. You're an inspiration.
