Re: Project: Analysis Paralysis 1950 3100

As I said I started this over a year ago and was significantly delayed. It feels like Im finally making some head way in the several of weeks. I finally got the 3" sids dropped axle installed along with posie springs all around. I do have 3" blocks for the back but still havent mocked up the rear axle to see just how low it will be.
This weekend I mangaged to get the front wheels on with some temporary rollers. The tires are tiny at 185s but they were only 5 bucks to have them installed on the wheels and will work until I can afford white walls.
I thought the bottom of the axle would be the lowest point but noticed the tie rod is actually lower and every so slightly lower than the scrub line.

Hopefully tomorrow the rear axle will be temporarily installed with wheels on so she can roll. Im really itching to get wheels on the ground and cab on so I can mock up the 292.
Really enjoy doing this, Im crazy slow but enjoy getting in the garage and messing around.
