BUILDING A CUSTOM STREET ROD (29 Ford) #6

[@xoxo9623]

Nice information

[@abdalqadr1]

Greetings for you from Iraq

[@toddclyne3493]

Thanks for watching in Iraq

[@alanhovious3160]

Very nice fabrication very clean. I assume you used a piece angle iron to fabricate a mounting bracket for the Hiem joint

[@toddclyne3493]

A piece of flat stock butted into the frame. Tig welded and then used bondo to blend before painting

[@thefamilyoffour5902]

The box looks like an old mustang box. 68 to 70. I was considering the same box for my 31 build.

[@stephenstewart9242]

Wish I knew more about I.D. gear boxes but IDK but u got a clean lookin build goin on, little by little !

[@toddclyne3493]

Thanks

[@danielserrano8600]

Thank you sir great video, great info

[@toddclyne3493]

No problem

[@stanlee1884S]

Why weld that smooth 3/4 rod. Why not another setscrew?? What about body&frame flex? What happens to the tight steering shafting,column, Vega box,in regards to stress points?

[@toddclyne3493]

Every application is different. This is what worked on this project.

[@tamckinney1698]

How long is the steering column ?

[@peterhall2038]

What steering column is that? Looks awesome

[@Mariovlogs-pf4jl]

Where did you get that column

[@RecklessRegal]

Just found this video, do you have a link to the steering heim that you used, and also that dampener joint? I have to do the steering on my car soon.

[@toddclyne3493]

I got everything from Speedway. Very helpful

[@minidragger2254]

Looks like a early Toyota pickup steering box.

[@1320gearhead]

That's not a Vega steering box. I have had a few Chevy Monza's and I have 1 with manual steering and the Vega/Monza box dosen't have a sector shaft anywhere near that long.

[@toddclyne3493]

It ended up being a Toyota steering box. The person that originally but this car used a Toyota box and a 5 speed Toyota Celica transmission behind the flathead. Lol kind of an odd combo.

[@1320gearhead]

@@toddclyne3493 I've heard that there's a toyota steering box I can adapt to my 51 Ford F1 but I haven't looked into it.

[@marteck319]

1320gearhead 1979 to 85 4x4 and 4 runner box, power or manual. Mid Fifty.com for the straight scoop.

[@SteveP-vm1uc]

That sure looks like you could have gone straight to the box with 2-U-joints and one rod..

[@toddclyne3493]

If that was the case I would have.

[@johnbowen2963]

WELDING ANY STEERING PARTS, JOINTS .SHAFTS, UJS . IS NOT!!!!!!!!! A GOOD DEAL!!!!!!!!! NEVER WELD SEARING PARTS.

[@toddclyne3493]

I respect your point but I disagree.

[@cuzz63]

never say never....

[@hedgepethracing9590]

Here we go... Every project has a different circumstance to make it work... unless you get a million dollars to refabricate the whole damn thing.. and redo that last 38 things you did.. keep up the good work on your hot rod man
