Cutting up my car to get it lower 1951 Ford RAT ROD

[@thercbarn5001]

That last few inches could take a lot of time to get. But you have all winter. Be cool to see it throwing sparks! I say go for it.

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

It'll be worth it 😏

[@thercbarn5001]

@Simon_Says_Garage I'm sure it will!

[@paulthompson8642]

I love your car

[@DachsAutos]

Wow.. Way to dig back into this. As long as you're this far into it, I'd opt for getting the 4"+ drop in the rear. That will look sick. --- I may have some 1" around here I used for the challenger bracing if you run into a pinch.

[@MacsSpecialitiesMotorsports]

YES.... Drag that tail feather!!!

[@greggcampbell4985]

I knew that as soon as you had a chance to get that beast laid out... you were gonna attack it! Love it! Gonna drag our tails to some shows next season!!!

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

Yes sir 😁👊

[@billdake3932]

You can get more weld if you move it to the top. And you dont have to do the dreaded "weld upside down" . If it's too low, you can always put a spacer on top of the bag.

[@dominiqueeaster9249]

You are already this far. Why not take it to the top. Not much more work and you will be glad you did! Good luck and nice build

[@greggcampbell4985]

I have the same problem. Due to changing my front tire set up. Went with a smaller front tire to keep it from rubbing. And even though mine ALMOST lays out the ass end sits slightly higher. I think the stock rear shocks bottom out. So when I drop my gas tank to fix the leak I'll install shorter shocks to see if that fixes my problem.

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

Love how low yours gets

[@Burnout.Garage]

Lay that frame boy. Go till the axle hits the c-notch. Then we know she down. Chop, cut, rebuild. You got all winter

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

The notch may come in handy after all 😏

[@Smallblock_Saloon]

Build that new bridge on top of the frame. Your c notch is large enough to support it & you are going to need to redo everything else you removed anyway.. you are already there ..

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

Yes and yeah you ain't wrong lol. I'm already cutting why stop now

[@HardCoreFab]

Why stop at even 4.5 when you can go ALL THE WAY... 🙃🙃🙃

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

Lol we are gonna freaking try 😁

[@shotsrodder]

Oh my goodness lol 😂

[@angelgarcia4328]

Simon u got this far …. GO ALL THE WAY DOWN. U will thank urself later

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

I'm already thanking myself for actually doing this much lol

[@DoonerF]

Wheel wells and a different style of panhard bar. There is one that has two bars and a pivot in the middle. That will keep the differential in the center no matter what height it’s at.

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

I did ponder a watts link I think that's what you are referring to. But I really want to try and make what I have work

[@greggcampbell4985]

Q: Why not go all the way? A: It can't sit TOO low, can it?

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

Lol

[@aaronhillyer1]

Go big or go home!

[@SeansNewWorld]

You are already there so why do it three times, go all out.

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

Right lol

[@joselinares-eu7mc]

Enjoy the content..the yapping is too-much

[@russelblackwell6041]

[@Simon_Says_Garage]

Sorry man I start rambling sometimes lol

[@randiegadberry5448]

Go lower.

[@Simon_Says_Garage]
