I’ve added a table which tells you what track width Mustang II kits will work best on which vehicles. The list will be updated as I get time to go through the thousands of emails asking “what track width should I use on my ________?” Click here to see the current list. Recently, there was a tiny mis-communication here, and both Paul and I were working on the same customers tech question. I got a phone call from the customer, and my dad had an email. It was kind of funny because we both thought we were working on the same problem for a different customer, at the same time. Here is what we both came up with: Every customer is different. You’re different from the next customer. There is no formula, no equation that will work with all of you. It takes a different approach to everyone to determine how best to serve anyone. Some people need videos, some people need descriptions. Some people need us to weld it together. Our approach has been, and will always be, to serve each of you where you are and to treat you the same way we would like to be treated. It’s been just over four years since we officially opened the doors to Welder Series, and we’ve just had our best year so far. I say four years, but the product line has been percolating for over 30. Paul Horton began developing and building many of the parts we still manufacture when I wasn’t yet a twinkle in Paul’s wife’s eye. Thanks very much for your business and support over the years. The future looks great, but there are some things that we won’t be changing. When you buy parts from Welder Series, that’s what you get. Parts. We don’t use fancy boxes, custom printed packing tape, or glossy catalogs. Our reported damaged box claims are quite less than half a percent of parcels shipped. Our ~60 page catalog will continue to be printed in-house so you get an up-to-date copy. Actually, I should have said copies… we send three catalogs with every order (most people request more than one when they order, so they can give one or two to friends) – here’s a true story: a customer of ours is a police officer, and had his daily driver broken into. The thief stole the standard items – cash, camera, wallet, Welder Series catalog. I’m not making this up – we had to send him another catalog because his had been stolen! Anyway, we try our best to keep expenses down because we know that will help you keep your expenses down. Thanks again A new customer in Nova Scotia posted this thread after he bought our Mustang II crossmember plates, and then some fellow HAMBers added their two cents to the mix. This is where two cents adds up to more than just spare change… it’s building a reputation. [stextbox id="info" float="true"]See the love here.[/stextbox] [stextbox id="info" float="true"]See even more love.[/stextbox] Dear Welder Series… Dear Harry… Advantages of a conventional spring & shock kit: Advantages of a coil-over kit: I hope this helps. Please write or call if you have other questions. Paul Horton Here’s a useful little thread from our friends over on the H.A.M.B. talking about drill bit sharpening – something I need to practice more often! Dear Welder Series… Dear Bob… Paul Horton Question: What day is it? <if> Friday, Saturday, or Sunday<then> move to paragraph 1. Paragraph 1: Paragraph 2: If you were watching Trucks!TV over the weekend, you probably saw our Mustang II crossmember kit being installed in their project ’49 Chev pickup. It was great to finally see it – if you remember, I mentioned this episode a while back. The good news is if you go to the Powerblock TV website you’ll be able to catch the Mustang II episode for a little while. Here’s a link to get you right to the video: CLICK HERE.
I should mention that the show is not a step-by-step assembly guide. In the video, one of the crossmember plates is shown being bent on the bench. The slotted rack mount is shown on the right, but our instructions and installation videos tell you to bend the plate down with the slot on the left. It’s a small step that makes a big difference – I’m glad Kevin caught it before it was welded in the truck. This is 100% necessary for rack clearance at the input shaft, as well as proper positioning of the rack. The slotted hole allows the use of either a 74-78 manual rack, or a later model power rack. When they install it later in the show, the crossmember has the slotted rack mount on the left. I really like how they centered the wheels in the fenders to measure wheelbase – this is a really good idea because from the factory, Chevrolet wasn’t too concerned with centering the wheels in the opening, and usually not until the truck is lowered to a “nicer” ride height does this become more obvious. Getting the ride height and wheelbase established before you measure to trim the crossmember is key. If you’re around next weekend (10th and 11th of October), please check out Trucks!TV on Powerblock again when they install our rear four link kit on the same truck. Thanks to Kevin and Ryan from Trucks!TV for the install! To see more Mustang II installation/ assembly videos, please click here and scroll down a little. Stolen on September 29th, from a house in Breslau Ontario. The owner is a very, very big man. 1948 Ford Business Coupe Pro Street
