    Help me identify my chassis

    The car was his personal vehicle and didn’t even have dealer plates on it but once they started checking they checked every vehicle on the lot including my truck. He didn’t have any issues with the business just his vehicle.

    Leaf Spring Shackle - regular vs HD and sway bar combo

    Why is there no photos, I’m truly interested in what the your talking about but I’m having trouble visualizing what you are talking about. Having worked on a scraped far too many A B C and F/M body mopars and haven’t seen anything like what you are describing. Post a damn picture.

    Rear leaf spring "tensioner"??

    Without photos it doesn’t exist, it’s just BS… You can get pictures or screenshots of anything and post them here so after being asked for several times and no pictures, I say it’s Bull Shit.

    318 Aspen with magnum heads.

    You don’t need a lifting plate to use a chain, just a couple of bolt holes and bolts. What you are doing there is down right dangerous…

    LA 360 Driver side motor mount

    Don’t forget K frames being deferent for every engine family since 1960. Are there reproduction 340/360 brackets?

    Frustrated - Front Brake Issue

    It could be that you have a leak at one of your fittings, I got into a Corvette that I had trouble getting a non factory joint to seal. It didn’t leak fluid but it did air.
