got the front end on the 66 today

well the heat was on but that didn't stop my son & i from putting the front end together. these are western 2in drop spindles & 1in lowered springs. we hope to do the driver side roter & shocks tomorrow then install rear springs & Dana 44. here are a few photos.

Nice! I don't think the springs will work like that but it'll surely ride low!

I'm not an expert, but if I am understanding correctly, you've got your frame flipped upside down for ease of installing the front crossmember. I am pretty sure you have your spindles switched backwards. Either that, or I do.

Forget this post if this was known, or on purpose.

Good catch guys you dont miss a lick ! I have the frame up side down to make it easy on an old dude like my self. We will flip it when we get ready to install the rear end & start piping the brake & gas lines. Thanks for all the help i love this site its such big help for locating info.
