1941 International Bobber

[RAT IHC]

Troy,
I have different spindle brackets coming that are a inch longer because of a limited turning radius when cross bar hits the bat wings. Hadn't thought about a panard though because the mono spring is jamed between the bat wings but prob should have one for alinement? The steering link is level with the ground but it doesn't bind going from side to side.[S

Some people don't use a panhard bar with cross steer, but in my experience and knowledge about it the spring isn't meant to keep things centered...only to absorb bumps and stuff. I'm not sure if the angle of the steering arm will cause a problem or not...I'm going to look through some of my stuff at home tonight...if I find anything I'll let you know. I've always been taught that the steering should only be on a slight angle from the draglink...but never "why"...I'll try to confirm tonight.

Maybe someone else has some input on it?

Cool. I'll look forward to hearing from you. I've built several Hot Rods but this is my first cross steer open wheeled monster.

Front Panard bar

I ordered a front panard for my 41 after researching.Ron Pope is sending me one.
I cut the headers down and added a 16" turndown and baffles.
I finished the bed also. Will upload pics soon.

Looking great! I ran pretty much the same header on my 31 Tudor. I just modified them like so...

headers

Yeah real close.I capped off the ends and welded a 3" x 18" at a angle and put a baffle in from a set of lakesters I bought at a swapmeet.

I'd sell them if the $$$ talks,lol. They have been sandblasted and I paid 40 bucks for them at a swapmeet. I'll clearcoat them to keep the gray color.

Do you have any leftover IH front sheet metal you aren't going to be using?

 

[andyspinstriping]

Thats a cool truck...I haven't seen many with a front end that long. I like the way it looks with the front axle that far away from the cab.

 

[Sullys Garage]

Cab only

Do you have any leftover IH front sheet metal you aren't going to be using?

Sorry. no sheetmetal. I just bought the cab.
