Great looking setup! The listing on Ebay is for a 32 Ford. Was there much fabricating to get it to work on your rig?

Re: 1951 5 window 4 link

yeaa plans for the truck are keeping the straight axle but im converting the front bearings over to the modern set up and going the later style tie rods i hope it handles good. also im going to run a hot rod flat metalic green paint job some fat whitewalls and im going to go the old hot rod style but insted of the flat black it will be a flat green
