Re: 1960 chevy parkwood wagon!

Got it fixed thanks to crawdadfox and Travis.

I found out i did not have the hole in the upper spring pocket in the correct location. Drilled a new hole in the center of the pocket.

Also the manufacture of the bracket said there is a variance in frames and i needed to cut and re weld the locating tab. Wasnt super excited to cut up new brackets but went ahead and a little while later it all looks better. You can see from the pics i had to move the tab 1/2-3/4" to allow the bracket to seat fully up into the spring pocket. Oh well, the spring sits much nicer now.

Also picked up my driveshaft today. Had to have the front shaft re tubed, and new cpp carrier support and slip style rear shaft.
