All you keen eyed builders noticed that the frame didn’t have a rear cross-member, only a piece of tubing to hold the tails of the frame.  Since we are slamming this roadster with a flat model A front cross-member if only seems right to step the rear cross-member. The step in the rear cross-member will also have the top mount for the rear coil-over shocks.  In the picture you can see the step is actually higher than the top of the rear frame rails.  Keep in mind the housing brackets have three vertical shock mount locations.

The front ladder bar mounts in the frame come off a 1 1/2” tube that is located off the top main rails in the X member.  With the trans in the frame you can see the relationship of the mounting locations.  With the trans removed we installed the ladder bars in the front mounts.  It gives you a feel for how fast we can fill tight spaces.

The rear coil-overs and spacer mounts are more parts from The Deuce Factory. These shocks are All American polished aluminum body with powder coated springs. This pair is the shorter 13” length that is available.  These shocks also have an adjustable dampening valve. A real plus when you are fine tuning the rear suspension.  We mount the rear end in place and hang the rear coil-over shocks.  You know when these chassis start coming together it’s a beautiful thing.
