Re: 1933 vs 1934 Crossmembers
The '33 front cross member curves forward after the motor mount biscuit location.The '34 flares rearward.I discovered that when I went to put new front shocks on my '33 tudor.The cross member had been replaced with a '34. Since I already had the front shocks and arms I simply did some trimming on the housing to get them in on the inside.
Yes I could have mounted them on the outside BUT would need different arms.I also wanted to lower the car by removing 4 leaves of the spring and since It still had mechanical brakes - the rods would have interfered with the shock set up on the outside.
Here is a pic of a 34 front crossmember
