1963 Ford Falcon Build - RestoMod

[jorgezee1]

I ended up ordering the Toms KA axles from a local shop, 430.00 Axles with new bearings/labor. I'll need to get new studs as well. The stock one were a bit to short. The Axles should be ready tue/wed.

Shop I went to is DTP Precision Rebuilding in Stanton CA, This is a nice shop, The owner Joe does really nice work. He rebuilt my Chevy 8.5 10 bolt a couple years back. I should have just gone back to him from the beginning. If only he was a little closer to me I would have. One of the reasons I went with the other place is they were 15 minutes away.

Axles 300.00
Bearing plus Labor 130.00
Wheel Studs - no price yet.

Picked up a pressure washer from Harbor freight, not bad for a cheaper unit. Worked really well for this project and I'm looking forward to using it again when cleaning up the underside of the car.

Started cleaning and paint process on the rearend.

I used a wire wheel and sanding disc to get it stripped.




After the grinding and wire wheel cleanup I started on the prepping for Por15.

Once the housing dries I will apply a Eastwood's chassis black as a top coat. I think overall it's coming out great, not show quality but perfect for a driver/weekend cruiser.

Painted the new leaf springs as well.
