    Thanks for the detailed video. Narrowed beam and maybe some 145's.

    I usually wrap a short bit of a fuel hose where the brake line goes around the pedal assembly :)

    Awesome work Taylor. I'm currently doing a roadsteration on a numbers matching 56 semaphore oval. With no rust, don't hate me. Australia doesn't use salt, yep we're lucky. I have drop spindles for it so thanks for the tutorial. Yep it has the original 36hp engine and turns freely. I'll send you photos if you would like. =)

    Drop spindles plus disc brake kit pushes the wheels out quite a bit. I wonder if smaller tires would solve the problem? Perhaps time to suggest to your client that they switch to a narrowed beam?

    How did you measure for the alignment shims ?

    Maybe would look better with a narrow beam....good job though.

    What 5x205 conversion adapter are you using?
