This car is gonna be a daily driver with a "59" series flathead, stock trans and rear end. Bob Drake sells a bolt on, tubular shock setup for the rear and I think one for the front, also. Anybody got any feedback on the Drake bolt on kits or suggestions for converting from the lever shocks?
I've got tube shocks on the rear of my 40, the top of the shock bolted in, but you have to weld the bracket to the diff housing for the lower mount. One of my lever shocks went bad and it was chearper for me at the time to go to tube shocks.
