Re: 1963 Chevy 4x4 conversion
Made a little progress today. I got the shackle mount for the front springs about where I want it to be.
Went from this:
To this:
I made a pattern out of cardboard of the cast block that bolts to the frame and marked where it originally was and then used the jack to lift the spring up there and then moved the top part of the shackle to where I think it should be. Now I get to test out my welder and weld in the plate and figure out how I want to go about drilling the hole in the frame for the shackle mount. Thanks!
