The front beam was narrowed four inches. Custom 4140 axles were machined to replace the torsions. Bronze bushings and housings were machined for the axles to ride smoothly inside the beam. I removed and retained the outer needle bearings for the control arms. The bulk head was relocated 2" higher and 2" narrower on each side. Custom bag brackets with 1.75" tubing and hiem ends bolt to boxed levers the rotate the axles to raise and lower the car. The bags are tucked away under the area the spare tire used to be located, and a bead rolled sheet metal cover hides them and the solinoids, wires, etc. A custom steering shaft was turned to fit the T3 steering box. Flaming River U-joints were installed to connect the box to the shaft. Everything was then torn down, cleaned, bead blasted, and painted Base/Clear.

The Paint gun is a bleed-off that will lower the car after turning a ball valve to locate air to the trigger!!
