In my continueing effort to recognize excellent customer service/product, I want to "Thank" Glenn Lever, UMI, Borgesons, Inline Tube, NPD and NAPA. My buddy and I just tore my old front end off the 66' and upgraded everything. Front upper/Lower control arms, springs, shocks, disc brake conversion, 1.250 front sway bar, new steering box, idler arm, pinion arm, tie-rods and center link.
Inline Tube: Purchased a new disc brake conversion kit from Inline Tube with upgraded rotors. Great product and everything was in the kit as promised. I like kits because it saves me lot's of time running to the parts store for things I forgot. Kit fit great with no problems.
Glenn Lever: Bought upper/lower control arms from Glenn. They arrived with ball joints/bushings and powder coated black. They are rebuilt stock units and fit and work great! Thanks Glenn!
UMI: Bought their 1.250 front solid sway bar. That thing is a beast!! Heavy duty and powder coated black...fit great with no problems. I was worried about fitment, but no issues there. This unit fits like a glove...good work UMI.
Borgesons: I ordered a remanufactured non-power steering box and pitman arm from them. It arrived painted and ready to install. Works great and built in AMERICA!!!!
NPD (Ceneter link) did a great job as did the local NAPA (tie-rods) store.
I had it alinged yesterday and that car feels so tight! Tracks straight and true and I'm glad I did the upgrade. If any of you are deciding on doing this project, shoot me an email and I'll be glad to answer your questions. I'll say this...this was my first "front end job" and we did it while the car was on jack stands...my bruises and sore back can attest that I wish I could afford a lift :yes:
