Thread: 39 Ford (Coast to Coast) Rebuild

I'll take some better pictures tonight. I think the sway bar is in the proper place, but like everything else on this car, I have to second guess it.

BTW, nice work above. I love the fabricated holders for the sway bar. Looks beefy.

Yes your's may be on the side they first planed it, but if you could move it to the rear you would be better off i think.... i see in your pictures that it looks like it was rubbing on the end of the rack maybe as the car went into driveways where the a-arms moved up a lot... waiting to see the pictures from the rear...

I forgot to take pictures tonight, but I'll be back out there tomorrow. I did look at the arrangment of the front suspension tonight, and I don't think it's possible to move the front sway bar without considerable modification, but I could be wrong. Pictures will tell the story.

I was hoping to get the brakes squared away tonight, but I was stopped by a part that wasnt bagged properly. Below is a picture of a pair of parts, one is correct, one is not. The one on the left is correct. I'll reorder and continue on with the intake gaskets.
