1932 FORD Frame - Modifying '36 Radius Rods and Drive shaft (Roadster Build)

[@johnkranz4004]

Really nice job Jordan coming out nice

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thanks John

[@erniehoffer811]

I am 75years old. My Dad and I would pie cut, heat, and beat the wishbones.. Nice memories from 60 years ago. I like your work and the thought doing it.

[@bennettscustomsco]

That’s awesome Ernie! Would be great to see and hear all those stories

[@ericargo9157]

I still can't believe this outstanding custom hotrod fabrication channel doesn't have a million subscribers. Crazy.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Haha thanks Eric! Maybe one day!

[@dirtywelder483]

You used to be indecisive but now you just dont know what to do...great work again mate i keep learning something every time i watch this channel..

[@bennettscustomsco]

I learn as I go showing you guys the real thing

[@daleking8529]

A great job modifying and explaining!! That is going to be a killer car!

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thanks Mr. king!

[@TrashcanGarage]

Those are some mad engineering and fab skills, watching you think up solutions and make it happen. Gives me a bit more drive to improve my skills. Thanks for these vids.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thanks for following along!

[@Sal9499]

Great channel with the best music!!! The information is very valuable and very well presented, will be doing this soon, but using open drive with the 36 Ford radius rods, so there's some thinkin' to do! Many thanks.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Most definitely! But doable for sure! Good luck with it Sal.

[@TheCloser1]

As someone who is always been overbearing on my own work, to the point it prevents me from making progress, it’s nice to see someone hold a higher level of precision than I do and show the problem-solving it takes to make it to the goal. Some of the best hot rod content there is here!

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thanks mate! Definitely try my best for the best quality outcome I can do.

[@murdoc6501]

Fantastic information here! Thank you for the amazing car/fabrication content. You sir are one of the best doing this. Thank you. Go Bennetts Customs, keep moving forward and thanks for allowing us to come along for the ride!

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thank you kindly Murdoc- means a lot!

[@lazyhoundracing9621]

I think getting the radius rods closer to the mount is a great idea. You do a good job explaining your thoughts and why. Thank you for your time.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Sometimes I’m not sure I k ow what I’m talking about but can see and understand it haha! Happy with how it turned out

[@NotNotTrucks]

I had to *chuckle* when you said it’d be more stock by not moving the mount. I’m pretty sure stock went out the window by mounting it on the 32 frame

[@joecioe8566]

Nice thought process and a clean way to making it happen. Good job Jordan.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thanks Joe!

[@toddbader6104]

Henry's clearances were never this tight! I always use 46/7 style radius rods which are much shorter and disappear under the car quicker. Nice job! Even if you are overthinking it.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thanks Todd, yeah they work great I found a couple sets just after finishing these haha

[@reuben1974]

Hell yeah…. Friday night sorted now 👍

[@bennettscustomsco]

Don’t fall asleep too fast listening to me!

[@GMGarage2010]

Good decision on the radius rod anchor point. Made perfect sense. Cheers!

[@bennettscustomsco]

Cheers Glen, seems to be the best fit so far

[@thomaspollock4274]

Glad to see you feel your way through the process, and also deciding to stress relieve with heat after assembly. It is progressing nicely.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Yeah I’m definitely hoping heating with help other wise I can pie cut and weld

[@Biokemist-o3k]

Absolutely fantastic my friend!!! I just stumbled on your channel and I am astounded at your ability. Very cool. I am so stoked to see this thing done. I am building a restored of a Morgan so maybe we will meet at the Race of gentlemen or whatever it is Calle right here in Jersey at the shore or down in FLA where it is nice and warm.

[@bennettscustomsco]

It’s on the bucket list so possibly!

[@WaxMeister]

Nice work, I'm not much of a scratch fabricator but when I do have work done I'm a big fan of keeping the geometry as close to original as possible and with minimum disruption to original Henry Ford engineering as possible. Good job!

[@bennettscustomsco]

I can’t agree more! Thanks Gee whizz

[@SchysCraftCo.]

Love the videos guys. It's coming along nicely and looking real good and very clean design so far. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God Bless.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thank you again Jared! Much appreciated as always

[@adamwhite1977]

Hey Jordan, i think you definately chose the best option with the radius arms. The longer the better i reckon 👌🏼

[@bennettscustomsco]

Thanks Adz!

[@erniehoffer1784]

Good day. Too much stress in the bars. You need to pie cut the tubes. Both inside in and to raise the tubes. At least heat the tubes. Too much stress on the bolt. The bolt will fail.

[@bennettscustomsco]

I will heat and see how that helps, option C to pie cut and take the stress off if needed

[@darrenbrisson4336]

Cheers mate darren from ottawa canada just wondering why didn't you make and weld in some brackets to bolt the radius rods to the transmission crossmember instead of cutting them and moving the bracket?

[@bennettscustomsco]

I like it all to pivot off one location, unless it’s a perfect mounting location you can have it flight each other, this way was just simple and effective

[@ericargo9157]

Who does the song "Spend my money on..."? Can't find it in the play list. I want to add it to my "Jordans Tunes" collection I dig playing whilst working on my old trucks.

[@bennettscustomsco]

I’ll have a look Eric

[@bennettscustomsco]

Hey Eric, the song is, Moarn - Shillings

[@ericargo9157]

@@bennettscustomsco Thanks Jordan! Dig it.

[@michaelgillespie1206]

Could you do the same thing with the rear end from a '40 Ford pickup?

[@gregjobson4844]

Nice work Jordan, the 5 window looks pretty clean is it yours? Cheers Greg

[@bennettscustomsco]

Bit more on that at the end of the Of the month

[@victor440_]

Can you switch the front motor mounts so that they go in instead of out.

[@bennettscustomsco]

Kick in too far unfortunately

[@victor440_]

I thought so but wasn't sure

[@dennisschickling2249]

Nice Work. Nice Video. #STAYSAFE #PHILLYPHILLY 🇺🇸

[@bennettscustomsco]

As always Dennis a big thank you!

[@darrenbrisson4336]

Man forget that 32 Ford grill been over done iron traps pumping them out every week you should use that grill on the wall just only for car shows when it's being shown with the snatch sign everybody will be calling the car snatch hahahahahaha 🤣 😂 😆 😜 😉 that's a cool grill would definitely drop some jaws and raise some eyebrows lol!

[@darrenbrisson4336]

Please at least just for shits and giggles show us what that grill would look like at some point apon finishing the build and you have to show us it with that grill parked underneath the snatch signage please that'd be great lol!

[@msrx08]

39:45 please, the title of the song?

[@EdwardDockery]

👍🏼👍🏼

[@rocklamarre9717]

Splice piece is too short 12" minimum when splicing

[@stevewilliams2498]

Sorry .. you lost me. You moved the bracket because you didn't want to modify the radius bars. But you ended up moving the bracket AND modifying the bars. ?

[@bennettscustomsco]

Correct
