Steering, suspension, disc brakes with pictures... progress is sweet

Well around here it was extremely nice monday so i took advantage of it and get some stuff done on the '73. the day before i removed a rear end, front suspension, disc brakes, battery apron, driver's floor and steering setup from my '75 parts car. while it was nice monday i managed to get the steering, suspension and disc brakes on the '73. it all went on good and only took about 4 hours (included is a 45 minute break ). but i just wanted to post some pictures. i love progress and feel i should share it

 

Great progress!

 

Thanks, hopefully by the weekend or so ill have the rear end installed im excited

 

Coming right along

 

yeah, just wait till i make a road trip in it to your house

 

here's the rear end that i cut out....

 

Looks like the car is coming along. With the shock towers done, interior parts painted, and now suspension, what's next? Congrats on your progress.

Jim

 

going to undercoat the back before the rear goes in, install the rear end, fix the floors, finish pulling exterior parts off of it and prolly prep and paint

 

looking good!!!!

 

Thanks John. BTW, how's Pinky???? any updates?

 

what rear are you putting in?

 

Looks like your making some really good progress! What happened to that 9" granada rear with the disc?

 

What was wrong with that rear end?

Great progress by the way. Im looking forward to some good weather myself to get the front/rear disc brake setup installed.

Nice wheels too.

 

Sweet !!!

 

well im thinking of using the 8" i have in the pictures and doing a rear disc conversion, or running an explorer 8.8

my 9" rear disc diff is going under my '67 Mustang

Thanks.... and what rear was u referring to??
