Terry, this might not apply, but on my 53, the Mustang II kit (stock spindles) looks like it's going to drop the front end about 3-4". Hard to tell at this point since I don't have the full weight of

Bob brings up a good point here. Magnafluxing is effective only if the person doing the job is properly trained. The head or block must be completely cleaned of all oil and grease first. Even paint

Mike, it doesn't look too bad to me. If you think you might enjoy the body work and weld repair, it would seem to be a good project. Mind you, I'm basing it on the fact that for a typical truck in N
