1: How much will your kit lower my car?
Since we don't know how your car sits right now, that is tough to answer but, the standard eye kit will center the wheel in the fender opening, that is, the same amount of tire will show all the way around the wheel. The reversed eye kit will sit the car 1 1/2" lower, less tire showing above the wheel. The standard eye kit will have about 4" between the bottom of the frame and the top of the rear end housing, the reversed eye about 2 1/2" and should have the frame "C" notched.
2: Can I still use my stock gas tank with your kit?
Yes, the rear mounts don't interfere with it. On the rare occasion the there is any problem, the tank can be moved forward slightly.
3: Can I install this kit with the body on the frame?
Yes, the kit is able to be installed with the body on, although not as easily. On the 35 & 36, the floor covers where the front mount is so, a bolt-in kit is about the only way but, the upper bolts are difficult to install on all body on installations and so the top of the mount could be welded from below. On 37-40, the floor is above the mount and so weld-in or bolt-in can be used, with the weld-in actually easier.
1. How much will this kit lower my car?
Since we don't know how you car sits currently, that is tough to say but, the standard eye kit will center the wheel in the fender opening, that is, the same amount of tire showing all the way around the wheel, and the rear end will be center with the top of the body bump out that covers the running board. The reversed eye kit will lower the car about 1 1/2".
2. Can I install this kit with the body on?
Yes, there is no problem installing this kit with the body still mounted to the frame.
3. Do I need lowering block with your kit? ,
No, unless you are building a "tail dragger" style custom.
1: Will this kit allow me to use an overdrive automatic transmission?
Yes, that is what the kit was designed around, that and the large heavy duty transmissions.
2: Can I use this kit even if I plan to stay with the axle front suspension?
Yes, but you will need to split the wishbone as there is no provision for the center ball mount, plus most late transmissions need the pan clearance.
3: Can the transmission be removed from the bottom with this kit?
Yes, again that was one of the criteria when this was designed.
4: Can this kit be installed with the body still on the frame?
Yes, it can but we really don't recommend it. You need to extremely careful when removing the original center section so as not to damage the floor. It can be done but is much easier to do with the body off.
1: Do these brackets hold the end of the emergency brake cable because there isn't anything to hold them on my calipers?
Yes, these brackets hold the wheel end of the emergency brake cable housing since the original one is part of the spring mount in the car.
2: Where do these brackets mount?
These mount to the caliper mounts where the dust shield originally did.
3: Are these something I really need?
Yes, since the emergency brake needs to be activated just about every time the vehicle is parked, to keep the brakes adjusted properly.
