T front end

[RodStRace]

Even if you bought a quality kit there are going to be some fitment issues. I am not putting down the fine folks that build and sell them, but each car goes together with some changes. Buying an incomplete project adds to this.
Read through the build threads here, research each system and component, develop a plan and try to plan for how to revamp if and when needed.
This guy bought a kit, built it and drove it on Power Tour. It's a document of how he did it and the issues and fixes. Probably a good idea to see what's involved.

Thread 'To shock, or not to shock? That is the question! Whether it tis better. . ...'

Jan 30, 2024

I recently acquired a second-hand T-Bucket project that has never been completed. The front end has no shocks and no shock mounts. It has a transverse leaf spring front suspension. Anybody running one of these front ends without shocks? The travel seems so limited I'm not sure that they're necessary?!
