Re: Daverods project 66
Ya baby. I was kind worried if I had my notch in the right spot or not. Got room to spare. I just looked at the pictures to get it in the right spot. Did'nt really measure anything.

Re: Daverods project 66
I see what your talking about now on the lower link bars, By adjusting the threade rod end will change the pinion angle. I wont push the alxe back or bring it up since the top will be in the same spot regardless, just rotated either way. As far as cutting a whole in the frame. that's not a problems as long as you box around the frame in that area and add some plate on the outside or inside of the frame rail. I've seen others do it that way.

Re: Daverods project 66
Adjusting the lower links will change your pinion angle, but it will also change your axle center-line in relation to your notches...it would be best to get your pinion close and just make some fine tuning adjustments with the adjustable links
COOL VIDEO!!

Re: Daverods project 66
from the looks of the clip it seems to be working good , changing the pinionangle using the treaded rods should be possible but to move it down you need to lengthen to bottom one and shorten the top one , that way to axle stays where it is , the arc of travel might change a bit when there not parralel bars
i wonder if the angle is needed with the bars because its a pretty solid connection to the frame , usually they use the angle on leafsprings so it straightens when the leafs wind up under accelleration

Re: Daverods project 66
I just set it by eye and tacked it for now. When I know for sure I'll weld it on for good. I'm sure I can get a few degree's just by turning the nuts on the arms. I does'nt have much of an arc. It moves pretty much up and down. I don't think the pinion angle is as critical when your using a two piece driveline. There's twice as many u joints. I can always raise or lower the carrier bearing. Have to do some more research.

Re: Daverods project 66
It is even more critical with a 2 piece drive-shaft, and more complicated. You don't want any of the joints at 0 degrees of the will wear out prematurely

Re: Daverods project 66
Adjust the angle to the center joint. It should be in faze that way. Also I looked at my truck and there's lots of room to put the exhaust pipes from the block huggers along the inside of the frame to where the frame kicks up. Then cross over from there. Remember I have a 73 rear part of the frame, but I looked at the back half of my old frame and it looks like you can do the same thing.

Lots of room. So I guess you can go under. Now all I need are some bezels for cheap.

I've been using my aircompressor to fill my air bags. I was worried about the pressure. Whats the max pressure I should put in them?

Re: Daverods project 66
Again look in E-Bay. Mustang is a thought also. But I like the Corvette ones better too. They're at a better angle.

Re: Daverods project 66
I looked on ebay. I saw there's some at a lower price $43 but lets see what they sell for. I'm thinking $100. Ya the mustang ones look cheap. I'm only putting about 120 in my bags so I'm safe. Worried my though. Just did'nt want to hear a big pop.
