Re: Freddy's '52

Very nice looking truck. The patina and stance worked out perfectly. How do you find the ride height, now that you have been driving for a while. 4.5" bumper right?

Re: Freddy's '52

How did you figure out your a arms were swapped? When I reassembled my front end I wasn't sure which was which, its not obvious. I may have done the same thing! Its not on the road yet.

Thanks
Tom

The alignment guy never could get the caster right. Here is a picture of how they should be. The one where they're painted black is the wrong way. The more rounded side goes towards the rear.

Thanks! Yeah right about 4-4.5", it isn't really bad to drive. Just have to be mindful of everything when driving, a possum has had a bad day if it's in the road.
