Ok well then Brian, you summed it up, I have leaf springs. No need then huh? I totally forgot to ask that, that was one of my questions since I was wondering how the heck a leaf set up would move side to side..... Now what about something for traction? I asked this before but I think the only answer I really got was 4 link and maybe ladder bars. Should I put ladder bar setup on it? If so then how hard is this to achieve? I am sketchy about welding on my axle tube because I have a friend of mine had his warped on his really nice 56 hardtop Chevy and needed a new rear end. I am thinking though, if I have to weld here then weld about an inch at a time in one section and I'll be fine. I can just weld an inch on one bracket on one side, go to the other bracket, weld and inch, go back weld the other side an inch, etc. Even if it takes forever then it's worth it. I am not sure about adding weight though, not sure what to put back there. I don't have money to add a fuel tank back there, I have my batter up front and it's fine. That is all I can think of. I wanna put a tonnel (sp?) cover on it but that is not adding weight. I am not sure.... maybe add 50 subwoofers? hahaha just messing.
