Title: Line up bar
Post by: Larry Gocha on February 12, 2013, 09:40:58 AM

Roo funny you brought up the line up bar in your other post what do you use and how fancy does it have to be does it need to be solid or can you use a piece of Dom tube or something similar.

Larry,
        I have two of them. The one that I loaned to Tyler is made from a piece of DOM tubing with a flange that bolts to the pinion support area of a 9" chunk. The other is a store bought one from Mark Williams and it is made from 4130 tubing with a semi machined cast aluminum pinion support. I also have an 8 3/4 Mopar chunk that has a flange added to the pinion area to match the end of the bars.

I have a 4130 molly bar that has a pressed in machined and threaded end that utilizes cones and spacers to fit different rears and machined donuts that fit different mains.
