Do you have a plan for steering? Shocks? Rear brakes? Master cylinder, etc., etc.. Lots involved in this changeover. |

Re: How To Lower The Model A The Old Fashion Way
My car already has the '46-'48 juice brakes and spindles on the "A" axle. I will just be changing out the A for the '32-'36. The steering has already been adapted. I am using Armstrong shocks.

Re: How To Lower The Model A The Old Fashion Way
OK, makes sense now. Also I meant to say: "The 46 spindles will bolt onto the '32-'36 axle using the 46 kingpins and the bearing placed on the bottom as it was originally for '46."
What do you have now for kingpins - they should work the same on the '32-36 axle(?) |

Re: How To Lower The Model A The Old Fashion Way
Are you still running mechanical brakes? Do you notice a difference after lowering?

I went with hydraulic brakes because I upgraded my power train to. 283 V8, T5, Ford 9" rear. I can cruise 65 mph at 1,800 rpm and I'm getting 18 to 19 mpg. |
