Yes, some members here have hard feelings towards the other site and/or the new owner. I personally have no issues with Austin. Mind you, I may not be aware of everything that has/may have transpired. Regardless, I do think it's a real shame that things ended up this way. I do miss Astrogurl, E7ats and some of the others. I have to believe that they know I harbour no resentment towards them at all. They will always be considered friends of ole Petey.
I think I speak for all of us, we're glad you're here. You are exactly what this site is all about. Great project, excellent skills. Thanks for sharing.
I've followed your project from the start Danny,you've done a great job and have had some great help from your Dad and Vance,keep up the good work and continued success with the rest of the project.
Btw, I know how long it can take to upload pics,so a big thank-you for taking the time and effort so that others could check out your ride

Technical fabrication posts always keep me checkin` back everyday......
Danny, do you know any technical sites that describe how to weld in a 4-link setup, especially info about all the angles and length of the links etc, etc....?
I suffer from BAD axle / spring wind-up under heavy acceleration with my V8, 373`s and my Auburn posi. I need my rear axle to be positively held when I mash the "ON" pedal ......
Any info from any member will be greatly appreciated.
TIA.

k120189- i am looking into building a watts link. a panhard bar leaves a little room to move side to side where as a watts link there is no side to side movement. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-J4xkHuP7QY
reaper- thanks man
socali-for an easier fix you could try traction bars but as far as a 4 link reading google has been my best source. theres a aguy at my work that went to school for suspension so any question i pick his brain unfortunitly he cant find his school books.
