thanks, and no never thought of it lol. still need to add some bracing to the lower bag brackets to completly get rid of trailing arm inward twist (not to much now). also have to redo the whole adjustable panhard bar issue


for the front, well i put the stock upper a arms back on in the front because of having to much positive camber, gonna shorten and cup the lowers and add 3" drop spindles with bags and that should take care of the front for a while.

some cupped lower a arms im building.... welded with an arc welder by me, and not the greatest and best looking but they will work. also will probably end up shortening them 1" to help with negative camber.

edit: dont mind the obligitory frame in the background lol....

haha thanks bro. still a whole lot more work ahead of myself. my skills are not that great especially in the welding department, thats why i did not weld the notch my self but did help with the install of it lol. the a arms on the other hand i am doing myself , the welds are not perfect as i am using an arc welder and also not the greatest welder, but they should hold as it is welded inside and out, front and back top and bottom lol..

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 
I need to find some A arms to rebuild and notch the bottom out like that for my coil springs! Lookin' good man, lookin good. Hey as long as your welds hold, I guess thats all that matter!

Were ya able to score the disc brake front crossmember?

project 67 sub 12-24-2010 04:41 PM

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 
it already had them on it when i bought it from my friend, he is the one that did the disc swap (complete crossmember disc to disc). but i added the power brakes to it.

project 67 sub 12-27-2010 05:26 AM

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 
sorry no pics. but the other lower a arm is cut and welded up, didnt shorten them though. still need to re sand blast them then i can put the cross shafts and stuff back in and paint them. then get some bags and install them as well lol.
