Default Re: FINALLY…T5 WITH Torque Tube in a ‘35-’40 Ford...The WHOLE STORY!

James Y.....I've looked at your pictures more closely trying to soak-in the details of your ingenuity and workmanship. Off the batt, your workmanship seems beyond reproach...NICE looking chassis Sir! Secondly, it appears you're working on a '37-'41 pick-up because of the lack of body mounts toward the rear of the side rails, and additionally the rear radius rods appear to be '37-'41s. The rear anti-roll bar is a nice addition also. But what REALLY caught my eye is the shiny aluminum piece at the center of the brake backing plate. Do I detect that those are adapters converting the rear end to the later, slide-in Ford axles? If so, I LIKE that feature ALOT...smart, smart move! Details? I sure would like to hear (and see) more about your chassis! Dick D
