Well, it's raining real hard today and washing away all that snow we got last week. What better time than to put together the suspension.

Was really on a roll until I was ready to install the lower ball joints. Hit a snag. Seems my bud Dick at Firm Feel sent me ball joints for drum brakes so all had to stop. I have some correct ball joints coming so I'll hit it Monday.

If you match the ball joints up I bet the only difference is the bolt size. in a pinch you could drill them out.

Did you powder coat the k frame?

Here I figured the body would be in final prime.

Yes

Front suspension mocked up

More progress. Body almost ready for prime

Got the rear end back from the powder coater

The housing turned out good

And the springs. All new clamps and pads

Another suspension pic

Looking good.

Dart is finally in primer

Got my 3.91's out and check for wear and backlash. All within specs. I may go ahead and put together a set of 3.55s for later down the road.

3.91s

Got the first set of caps I bought. I have another set coming so when they get here I'll pick the best of the two setss

Here's the motor I'd like to put in the car

looking at this gets me to thinking

Do it!
