| OK LARRY STOPPED BY AGAIN AND HAD SPOKE WITH BRAD ABOUT THE PARTS......WE MAY NOT BE DOING THE WORK ON HIS CAR. I TOLD HIM TO BRING PARTS AND THE CAR WE'LL TAKE SOME MEASUREMENTS AND SEE IF IT'LL WORK OR NOT.
SANDY STOPPED BY AS WELL AND SAID THAT SHE PICKED UP THE PARTS FOR HER SHIFTER COUPLER AND BUSHING. SO WE CAN DO THAT.
PAUL HAD MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT SHOCKS SO MAYBE WE CAN DO THAT.
SO WE'LL HAVE SOME STUFF TO DO JUST MAYBE NOT AS MUCH AS WE HAD THOUGHT.
ANYONE ELSE HAVE STUFF THEY WANT TO DO LET US KNOW.
HOPEFULLY WE'LL HAVE ENOUGH FOLKS ABOUT 5 TO DO A CRUISE AND MAYBE GRAB A BITE. | |

| Yeah, Larry's main thing is he will just need some help. So if you can show up to help out Larry.. he can have a dropped front end. The front spindles are pretty straight forward.
I have to work unfortunately on this one.. but let's meet up at Kmart parking lot around 5pm for a cruise. I will email reminders to everyone. The weather is supposed to be real nice.. so it will be a good day for a cruise and hang out! | |

| HIS MAIN CONCERN HE MENTIONED WAS THE TIRE RUB. I TOLD HIM TO BRING IT AND THE PARTS BY WE'LL MAKE SOME MEASUREMENTS AND AS LONG AS IT DOESNT LOOK LIKE ITLL RUB WE COULD DO IT. IF IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL RUB MAYBE HOLD OFF (TO SEE IF SHOCKS (VIA BRADS) WILL HELP). | |

| I am only rubbing on the passenger side in a full turn to the left and braking. I think it is just soft shocks. When I did my 66, I did not get ANY rub at all. New front shocks and if I am not mistaken, 5 lug rims have a better offset. I think 34mm for 5 lug and 32mm for 4 lug. That puts the 5 lug further in. He shouldn't have any problems.. but not a bad idea to measure.
If he has 1" of space between tire and fender.. not up and down, but side to side.. then the 1/4" offset from the spindles will be fine.
I have been out measuring the snot out of mine for my rim upgrade. Drivers side has 7/8" from tire to fender.. no rub. The passenger side has 1/2" space and rubs on brakes when turning left.
Hope all this helps.
Oh, and mark the damn ball joint offset thingy with a silver sharpy to put it back the same way... Then no alignment..LOL | |

| I just received some new stainless brake lines (front and rear) and a new master cylinder in the mail. I also should have my alternate pedal cluster rebuilt by then. It is an option... | |
