Re: My 4" drop axle

Brian is correct, that is just their Ford dropped tube axle that they welded perches for leaf springs on and sent to the chrome shop. The only thing they did "custom" was to weld on those pieces of steel to set the parallel springs on but they left the Ford spring perch eyes rather than scratch build you a custom axle minus the ford pieces. That will cost some show points. At the cost of their shop time you probably didn't pay that much to have the pads welded on as the same chrome axle without the pads is 955.35 list in their catalog.
