Application
Cross Steering vs. Traditional Steering
Traditional steering provides an original, period look, but will only work in these applications:
Cross steering (using a Vega box) is the preferred method for nearly all cross spring, beam axle suspensions. Ford used this design from 1935-on.

Customers positively viewed the product for its quality and practicality, specifically for projects like the 1937 Chevy. They admired the all-inclusive chrome or polished stainless accessories, setting us apart from competitors. However, some found essential pieces missing from the kit which affected the assembly process. Improvements were suggested, including better instructions and inclusion of specific hardware such as the upper steering arm and extended length threads for front steering. The kit's washers were deemed large, causing issues with bearing caps seating. Despite issues, customers found the product mostly satisfying.

When getting any kit from Speedway that is chrome I have been very pleased that all the accessories are chrome or polished stainless too. It's not that way at another company that sells T-bucket kits.

I purchased this kit to upgrade my 60's Fiberglass T bucket. Yes 60's not sure when. 59 Olds rear axle, Airhart rear 4 piston brakes 66 327 chevy. All hand made frame. The original owner upgraded the 49-54 Chevy pass-car drum brakes with VEGA custom welded spindles in the 80's along with a Turbo 350 dumping the power glide. Vega Brakes? YUK! try and find wheel for a T Bucket with Vega Brakes. So I decided to do a complete upgrade. First I like the kit but it is missing a few pieces of hardware and include a Buch of Hardware you do not need. If you choose the traditional steering option you would expect to have the very important upper steering arm. Nope not included. Speedway should include this in the kit if you choose the Traditional Option. Im a man and do not need instructions....but they would have been helpful in relation to hardware and location where it was supposed to be used. It was liken to a puzzle of hardware and a lot of dry fitting before we had it correctly assembled. As I said, there was quite a bit of left over hardware. Spacers for Pinto style rotors, nuts and bolts that did not seem to belong to the Wilwood Brake upgrade. Missing are 6 small outer diameter 3/8 washers. and 1 3/8 24 bolt that was 1.5 inches long for mount the caliper brackets. The washer between the outer wheel bearing and the castle nut is TO LARGE in diameter and will not allow the "screw on" bearing caps on the Wilwood hubs to fully seat. The 5/8 Heims Joints for the front steering are a little short for my liking and should have extend length threads. I purchased a new set 1.25 inches longer as Speedway does not offer extended length threads.

Front mounted tie rod I have space issues and may have to run the tie rod in front of the axle rather then behind. will the arms that are provided in this kit allow me to run the tie rod this way? or will I have to purchase different ones.
