Re: Legacy 59

just so you know, 55 was the transition year from the AD to the Tf trucks. if it was for a first gen 55 it is actually for an AD truck. not trying to rain on the parade, just a heads up.
fatman has a really good tech articles section in their catalogue online, there is a section on understanding indepenent front suspension that is a shoer read but very informative I recommend to read that even if you have mechanical background. also, since the front fender wheel openings are not symetrical, it really makes a difference on how the front tires loo in thw wheel openings when you lower the truck down over the wheels. its always good to have the correct size tire for mock up and also set the truck at ride height and rake angle when you are doing a mock up.
keep posting up pics, we all like to see your progress and sometimes can steer you in the right direction.
