Re: The 1976 Beater Build - by Wixthedog
Finally had the afternoon to get stuff done and wouldn't you know it, another snag!
I got everything lined up once, and realized I installed one of the lead springs backwards. Not sure how I did that since the axle on the passenger side was about 6" back from center but it was an easy fix, albeit a frustrating one.
Everything back together and happy, rear wheels bolted on, and the axle sits straight on frame. I can only think that the leafs are in poor shape since I did fine some cracked ones so now I am on the hunt for some replacements.
Until then I'll let it sit on frame and tackle the front.
No pictures, far too frustrated!
