More frame work. Had a couple bag mount plates, so I added some 1/4" plate to them to make the front crossmember and tacked in the rear member too. Lots of time spent getting everything level and square, someday it would be nice to have a frame table, but nowhere to put it tho....

Thanks E-man. Not being a shiny build is going to save me a lot of time (and sandpaper) which is important to get this one roadworthy by October. Nothing like having a deadline to inspire production

Working on mounting points for the front trailing arms and rear links. Got some beefy Heims with 5/8" bolts. Also added a support piece on the outside for double shear strength.
Inside I cut a hole and used the plug to weld to a piece of tubing to weld in the mount hole, doubling the mount hole thickness. On the left rear side, I added brackets to mount the forward end of the diagonal link track locator. |

Doing front end mock up to get an idea where the Vega box mounts so I can now order the drag link. The trailing arms will be pretty much parallel to the frame so it'll need a Panhard bar tucked in there somewhere. I've had the disc brake kit for over 10 yrs for this 1941 pickup axle, but when I opened the parts box, found that it was for a 47-59, which has longer spindles
