    Tech tip; wrap a chain over the top of the frame and around the axle of the floor Jack. When you raise the lower control arm the chain will hold the frame down so the spring will compress.

    The alignment for the mustang clip is the upper two bolts on the A arm any alignment shop can aligne it for you. But get your rear suspension in first.

      Sometimes the hard part is finding a shop willing to work on something custom.

    enjoyed watching your video and your explanation as you went along. I look forward to seeing the finished truck. I remember a 55 Chevrolet truck being used by the local Chevrolet dealer as a service truck back when it was new.

      if you don't mind me asking. how did you put a gm rotor on a ford spindle? trying to figure it out for my build@@machnikgarage

    • @machnikgarage

      They sell the mustang 2 rotors with either bolt pattern. Check out speedway motors. Gm pattern will come with 7/16” studs and ford will come with 1/2”. I’m going to swap to the 1/2” studs to match the 9” rear axles I got that have 1/2” studs and the 4.75 pattern.
