Wow I like that a LOT.  If you get a chance, could you get me a parts list, and a short how to, or a tech page on that?  I may be going that route for SURE on my '67!

Yes I like that alot too, if you put together a setup on briefly how it was done and how you avoid bump steer I would like to see it, you say it was done with standard parts? no custom stuff? Thanks, John
