63 Futura 'Vert, It Begins With Many Questions

[Millennial Falcon]

When I did my convertible it was just that, I fancy shouldered bolt, more fancy washer and a new bush.

So Jeff, do you think i could get away with buying the standard shackle and having Roger work his magic?
I guess im asking what exactly needed modification, what parts should i start with and then modify?


As for the rest of the project, the more i look into it i think i will go with Eaton springs despite the cost. i would rather get the spring rate correct so that the shocks match and this all turns out like i expect. Any deviation from stock seems to bring unintended consequences that i wont enjoy much, and would require a more well thought out plan for specific performance gains.

That thought goes out the window of course with the Street or Track front suspension because i am telling myself that the kit will eliminate the re-engineering and decision making on my part. Stay tuned i suppose, it should be good for a laugh if anything!
