Thinking of building a T speedster to use up some parts. Anyone setup to drop the axle?Talked to a few that do the A and newer axles but they weren't interested. Anyone know a source?
Check with folks in the T Speedster Clubs up in the NW states. Spmeone must be dropping them. We bought one years ago at the Pate Swap Meet from a guy who had dozens of them just shipped in from the West Coast.
Check with GMC Bubba... he had a 7" dropped axle I believe on his little vanilla colored T!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=143214
Try Nostalgia Sid's in Gutherie, OK. He is on HAMB as 55 Mercury. Quote from his post: "Nostalgia Sid's is a dropped axle service for most any I-beam axles. Our web site is www.droppedaxles.com .

Looks good.
