Re: Axel/Suspension info

1957Project,I don't have pictures of the suspension,I do have pictures of the truck as it looks with the different front and rear suspension,and the heigth. The Ubolts I mentioned are 3and1/8"wide,and 7"to10"long,according to your axle housing you decide to use. The frontend,I used a disc brake kit,that had a 1/2ton straight axle that was with the kit,my friend let me have. I could have used the 3/4ton axle,but the spindles with the kit were for a 1/2ton straight axle. The 1/2ton straight axle bolt right up to the front springs. There are kits you can buy for the 3/4ton,there are vendors,out there and some of the guys/gals on here,can probably help us out. The pictures,I have are not that great,this is the way it sets after I did the swap.Good Luck!
