Here's a shot of my front end.

Looks like a lot of engineering went into this do you have more pics? Is that a shock or steering stabilizer? Looks cool

Power rack-and-pinion in a T? Hmmmm...

neat front end,im curious what that nut and bolt is doin that looks like its up against the back of the leaf spring :hi:

:hi: Same here. Whats up with that? Nice work. Might be overengineered for T though. Just my opinion. :hoist:

Thanks for the comments gents....

Putz, the shocks are shocks.

Lee, I agree regarding the power steering, - Not needed, however the power rack was cheap and available. A manual rack is four times the money. And, I have narrowed this one to fit between my front springs. I may not use it as a power unit. I have thought about drilling the power piston with series of small holes in the piston, fill the cavity with oil and use it as a steerng damper. Or, I could run a line between the two hose connections and add a needle valve for variable dampening.

Chopfather, the bolt is part of the fore and aft adjustment for the spring on one side. The upper and lower spring plates are slotted for the spring center bolt. The other side is not slotted. The thought is to allow better overall chassis tuning for tracking.

I want to see a picture of the rest of the chassis. I like the holes in the frame.

[Swimeasy]

Yup! More picts please, that is all just to cool!

Interesting!

AZCOWBO,

Is that your blue T with the billet front axles and dual front brake calipers?

I want more pictures of that beautiful car.

Great Engineering, detail and Fab work there....looks like a piece of art there!
