Thank you!
My dad and his 34 in 1955. Me with the same car today
The other problem is that the rear end is not centered under that car. I’ve been doing some measuring today and I think the hole in the channel...
Looks like one wheel is further ahead than the other. I’m thinking the broken spring is causing the rear end to twist as well as lean.
Thank you for your help on this. I'm located in Lander Wyoming. I'll update my info. I'll be removing the spring today to get some better...
There is a plate welded in the crossmember that prevents the spring from going up into the channel of the crossmember. Not sure what has been...

Thanks everyone. I'll see what I can do.
Coming along. I can’t believe how much I have learned doing this. At least the end is in sight.
This is the seat that was in my 34. It was probably last recovered sometime in the 50s. It’s in pretty bad shape and I’m not going to use it in my...
