If you can't at least change the bumper I think you will be let down.
what kind of car/truck should i look for to get leafs off of to do a short leaf pack on a suicide?
Is it best to weld bumper shocks inside or outside the frame?
get a set of rear shocks/brackets from a 74-76 GM and weld them up all the way, or even better caddy rears

with caddy rear mounts how high would you mount a mopar pointy? Right on the beam or above it? also what 70s model suspension will fit. just the lincolns or will ltds do to thanks for the info.
that was with a pointy. I like to have as much bracket on the frame area as possible (pretty much like adding plate to the frame) and then the bumper goes where it fits. and i dont know arms and such

Anyone got any info on a 68 lincoln 2 door???
Are they something worth running??
Dont have one yet but i found one for sale...
Any suicide 2 door or otherwise is worth running.
Thanks for the picts DEMOFORFUN! Any sugestions for the steering?
no problem always glad to help. I havent quite figured out the steering yet. Ive only broke one steering box and havent broke any ball joints, the box that broke one me was when i tried going without power steering. Everyone says mid 70's F150 boxes fit but i have never tried one.
But a 2 door is not a suicide?? I thought they call it a suicide because it has rear doors that open up backwards if its a 2 door doesnt that change the fact that is does not have suicide doors???
same car just missing two doors
heres one im working on now






Does anyone have a picture of how they made their rear leaf spring packs. I know they need to be short and flat stacked but am having trouble getting a good start. Any help would be GREATLY aprreciated!!!
