Got the springs in....that was NOT fun....the rest of the front end stuff went smooth...next weekend install rear brake hose, bleed all brake lines, route the 3/8 fuel line from rear to front.

More progress...looks good.
Installing front springs without the engine in for weight is a PITA. For that situation, I use a 30" piece of 5/8" all thread to pull the lower arm up to attach the spindle.

Front should come down about level, if it retains original small block springs.
Are those pie crust slicks from Towel City ?
