I know that you made this comment about a month ago, I agree with you, I always wonder why they aren't more widely used, after all, the diff stays in the middle of the vehicle regardless of the height of the vehicle.
The calipers look like gm.if so are they large bore.speedway and other companys sell them and they fit anywhere a standard caliper fits and add 30% more stopping power .
Repeated comments about not greasing bearings, but nothing about missing seals… or nothing being torqued. Just a rough mock-up, done this a few times now, stuff always going on and off, no point till final assembly.
Travis, you were heating the motor of the starter not the housing that houses the gear. The problem is that the grease on the starter shaft is frozen and you need to defrost it for the gear to be thrown out to the flywheel. I am assuming you are going to "C" notch the frame, that being the case I would suggest you go online to Bellos Kustoms and watch Mike Bello install four link on different cars.
It’s mock up. Settle down guys. You really think all the control arms bolted on are going to stay on a rusty/unpainted frame ? Come on. Use some common sense here.
Where did you get those spindles from ?? ... I hate to say it but those are the scariest ones I've ever seen ... you've got a 4000 lb car applying G force on a hopefully noncompromised weld on both top and bottom ... I sure hope you realize that now you modified them you assume a lot of the liability if they for some reason fail ... I think I would try to gusset them if nothing else ... anytime you do chassis work for someone else you taking a chance ... just my thoughts ... don't want to see you have any problems later ...

I thought there was a new guy working with Jacob, but it was you Travis, sporting a new hair cut 😂
Thanks for another , Brother !
Don't forget to pack the bearings. Looks like a really fun project. Can't wait to see more.
Model A Looks Travis ‘s Galaxy gonna be a good one Nice Haircut
Much better hair style now was getting jealous of how much you had LOL
Beautiful work on the A, I'm sure the Galaxie will be just as nice. By the way nice hair cut.
I hope so!
The 4 link works with a panhard bar but works much better with a watts link setup.

The model a sedan you just finished must be 3 times stronger than stock, almost like unibody, great job!
Thanks, it sure was rigid!
Light a candle or 2 and put under starter.we did this on tractors.broken bendix spring
Good luck on the Galaxy
Great videos. Move to Southern CA.
And seals
I like the way you have a short preview before the intro. I t may be time for a fresh intro though.
Your starter is working it the silinoid that engages the starter to the flywheel that isn't working quit banging on it till you fix the silenoid
My dad had a 41ford in the winter he would clean the ashes out of wood stove and put them under the oil pan to worm the oil
That’s neat, never heard that before

THANK YOU!!
Never run dry bearings even for mock up. Don't have to pack fully, just like body tools finish is compromised from transferring irregularities.
Freezing cold and ears lowered ...
Use the Save-a-door Dali.
I've heard of hitting it with a hammer or crowbar, but never blowtorch.😂

Yeah I figured frozen grease was the culprit. I’ve done my fair share of 4 links also. Bellos does a good job
Shipping Day
How ya gonna stay warm with that haircut 😅😅😮
Who makes the front a arm kit
might be the first time someone used the word "accoutrement" when talking about a Ford Galaxie...
🤣
like 211
Pull start
😂
Real men have short hair! Comfort over mane.
Why didn’t you pack the bearings and put the seal in place?
I’m mocking it up, gonna blow it apart later. No point in getting greasy
Is the 63 yours or customer work....saw 40 on FB
Yes sir customer job
ya didn't grease the wheel bearings
Thinking the same thing

Sucks to have my OCD. I hope the chassis is not left bare metal.
We just got started hold your horses 😂
