I think i mentioned it earlier, that's what we did with mine. It only had four leaves one each side, and sat low like a E Body/ We added another main and a couple shorter ones. rides a little stiff on bad roads, but i love the look and no rubbing, even on uneave surfaces.

It looks like the Beest won't make it to Carlisle, after all. It isn't ready for the trip, and the truck needs tires.

Not sure who keeps bumping this up, but here's an update. When I lost the u-joint, it cause more damage than I thought. I got under the car to adjust the clutch and the tie rod ends to make a trip to the Nats. I found this. From the inspection cover bolt hole all the way up to the release for hole.

I decided to just give it a rest for this summer. I have some plans, which include a Lakewood bellhousing, a new driveshaft, a 3.55 gear, a bit of porting to the heads, a new M-1 intake, and to get the power steering pump and box rebuilt. Of course I am still doing the front end and torsion bars in that list. I'm undecided if I am going to get a brand new center chunk and new axles, or just bite the bullet and buy a Dr. Diff Dana 60. I'm going to drive it a lot next summer (I hope) and also beat on it. I'm leaning towards a Dana. That way it is as upgraded as I need it when I go to a 440.(Which is after I wring every last HP out of the 383.)

I was going to sell my GTS to get some things done on the Bee. But lack of interest from others and having it home to boost the interest by me, I may not. I took some pics of both of my rides together for the first time ever.

Crap Darin, it's always something(s). The offer is still open if you want to use my MP porting templates. PM an address and I'll get 'em to ya.
Old, tired, and sometimes broke down. Me, not my car...
