In addition, 1 spline down in the rear and drop spindles added to the narrowed beam should give my 66 a whole new look :wow: .

Eric re-did my original adjustable beam. Bought new adjusters and Eric welded them in after narrowing. Kostya is doing the tear down & installation since he had my car down there for the motor change.
