That makes sense. I figured the flat stock was the pivot.

Kim,
You put the thought in my head, that I could put it anywhere. With your long rod MC.

If u know and the wife asks you, you will be in a world of hurt. The good answer is "i dont know how much I have spent."

Re: 1959 Fleetside REBORN
Well the rear suspension is mounted up. I'm missing 2 front bolts so we welded it to the frame, till they come. It's time to get this thing running. Hope to have it plumbed(brakes, fuel and air) by sunday. With the drive shaft loops as well.

Re: 1959 Fleetside REBORN
It is a lot of work when you start from scratch like you did. It sure is looking good though. Thank God for plasma cutters. Good luck on your build.

Re: 1959 Fleetside REBORN
Only table I could find show 20 to 400 gallons per minute for 4" pipe depending on friction head and pressure. I could not find a converter from gallons per minute to horse power. My non-scientific guess is "not much" or just about as much cooling capacity I am getting out of my 4" pvc ac compressor!
