With rick's help the beam is ready for paint, 6" narrowed, no shocks, and adjusters, this is more work than i thought.

It's not that bad. I thought the hardest part was cutting the uprights off. The rest was pretty simple. Mine is complete except for the steering box bracket. I have to wait until I get my body back on (which will be about a year from now) so that I know where to re-weld it. Looks good.

I have shortned the tie rods, i still need to put the spring plates in, then i need to pull my beam to finish putting the arms and the link pins and the drop spindles.

I have not yet shortened the tie rods or spring plates. Seeing as I have to have the body back on mine to fully finish my beam, I am in no hurry.

Naw it was in the 64 Rick cut it down and ran in in the 64 until it died then the 62 till he tarded it to me.

Oh...cut off them bump stops on the beam before ya beat yourself to death in that 62.

I will consider that, i painted it "cow" inspired, i am going to have to pull the old one out soon and build the rest.

Finally got the beam together, balanced the 145-65-15's, and put the beam in the car lower the car down and bent my tag. Still have to finish the job and adjust everthing.
