This was pretty cool. We lowered our 50 (Edna) with a dropped axle and removing leaves

Thanks. Still have a lot to do but it’s been fun so far.

@@brianuerling4830 we love ours. Looking forward to seeing yours come along

Love the video, keep up the good work and I'm gonna do the same to my 50 or 54 not sure which one yet and can't wait for the LS swap video. What made you decide on the TCI set up? Just curious, haven't settled one one brand yet

[@brianuerling4830]

Thank you! I went with the tci based on reviews, lead time and the vertical upper A-arm mounts, vs the typical mustang setups you see that are horizontal.

I am going to try and share your videos far and wide as its word of mouth when your a young channel. A pretty young helper doesn't hurt growth either as that little thing I refer to is what makes this world go around... I don't mean vulgar as some are but you need to get eyes on for the channel. I like triangulated if your going to get down and dirty power in the power plant. Hey, I am seventy three, lost my ability to do this anymore but started in the late fifties doing mechanical stuff and then became a metal fabricator and heavy equipment mechanic/ and builder of shop trucks as in heavy duty service rigs.. I lived in the southeast alaska in those years and used just what was available. The cost of say a master cylinder that you can still buy for less than fifty dollars today on many of them.. back then to get one would be as high as five hundred dollars "Gold Streak Shipping" and if ya really needed it overnight, figure fifteen hundred dollars. So if you found a workable cylinder on say a ford and you needed something for a international, you just made it fit... and it had to be safe, plus better than the one that failed. I fell in love doing this, plus I was going through a divorce so it helped to forget the pain of a lady that I still love to this day. So no vulgar intentions, just a idea as to her stopping in with a cup of joe and say "I love what your doing honey". It does make some kind of difference as it did in my shop in anchorage where my counter clerks filled out work orders on rigs coming in or taking payments on stuff done. You have a nice area to work in so thats a big plus.... lets get you some sponsors that are in your area of work... like Vevor or Boxey Tool, many as in way too many to start listing here. I know that this might rub the wrong way but stay in touch with other youtubers in and about your area with a possible collaboration.. it can't hurt

[@brianuerling4830]

Thank you for the kind words and suggestions. My wife doesn't visit the garage much but will come drink a beer with me on occasion. Believe it or not this video was shot one hour at a time, I go out there after we put the kids to bed, its kind of my wind down. I ordered four link for the back and a watts link not going to have crazy power. Sounds like you would appreciate one of our previous builds we call the Grain Bucket built from a Massey Harris combine. I have a KZbin Short video of it i might do a full walk around of it sometime. As far as sponsors I'm not really sure how to even go about that. I don't know of any KZbinrs in the area but it does seem like the big channels kind of use each other as spring boards to get going.

OH no! Not an LS swap? 😕🙁☹😣😖😫😩

[@brianuerling4830]

I know, I know. Just hard to beat. Maybe if the 5.0 fords were attainable I would go that route.
