Re: Drop uprights
That won't work unless you have the independent front end out from under a 49/54 Chev or 54 to 62 Corvette under the car.
On the cars of those years the upright works like the end of the axle with the spindle fastening to it but the ends of the upright fasten to the upper and lower control arms. For the trucks we need a dropped axle to do the same thing.
Back in the late 50's and though the 60's a few guys did put one of those front ends under his custom truck for a better ride and to lower it. Usually on full custom trucks.

48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
