Happy Valentines Day!
The fear of rain helped the 27 project along a bit yesterday.
I was able to pull out the '37 ford rear end that matches the front.
Than the obligatory removal of the leaf springs.
How many times have I done this over the years!?
Just a half-ass scrape and clean job though.
If I get some spring shackles,
I'd reverse the main leaf and clean them up proper.
Later.
Here's a testament to never-seize, anti-seize, grey-grease.
I had cut the original radius rods,
and needed to remove the studs.
This should have been a bitch of a project involving removing the rear hubs.
I got lucky,
whoever put this together used enough grey grease all 4 nuts spun off easily.
Wow.

I've got no reason to be sour this Valentine's Day,
this is just a cool version of one of the greatest break-up songs.

With basically every other leaf removed,
the rearend is ready.
I'll still have to put on some hydraulic backing plates.
With the rearend on
the rear crossmember can be designed.
Looks tall huh!
I'm hoping it lowers a little bit.
Will need to pull out some tricks later
- Z the rear frame, reverse main leaf, weight.
Hoping to get the rear crossmember made today!
