Re: '67 Chevy II Build - Betty.

Thanks!

And yeah, I didn't change out the bushings. I know, I know...I really should. This is definitely a budget deal, so we'll see how the pennies fall in the next few weeks or so.

And I guess mounting the springs isn't really that big of a deal. I can make just about anywhere work...

And for the suspension travel, yes, I can cycle it through no problem. I'll work on that in the next few days.

I'm also going to be remeasuring everything. I welded the crossmember in enough that I'm not worried about it moving, but I can always cut and tweak it. I just don't want it to be crooked and half-assed (more than it already is, haha).

So, tomorrow I'll get out the level and the tape measure, and see if I have everything in line. Maybe I'll do some cleaning, and lay down chalk lines for reference to ensure I'm doing alright.

Any more pointers or suggestions?

-Sam.
