Re: My 1955 Chevy 3100 build

DS,

After I welded the crossmember into the frame, I bottomed out the rear suspension, took a measurement and then fully extended the rear suspension and took another measurement. I left some extra room in the loop to ensure that the driveshaft never touches it after it is powder-coated.

That's how I figured out how much to cut out of the loop.
