Tom's write up and illustrations on front suspension rebuilding encourged me to rebuild my '54. And it turned out great. When you read the Shop manual and they point out the special tools needed it can discourage a person from tackling some of these jobs. Someone like Tom who has done it and knows the shortcuts really is helpful. I have a front crossmember for my '49 on the engine stand now.
