53 chevy front end

Hey everyone!

Well I got my 53 belair and it looks like it's going to be great, but before it goes on the road the front end needs to be redone. Ive looked around for stuff but most of it is for 55-57. does anybody know of any sites that might help me?

Thanks,
-Colin

I did the front end of my '54 back around 1965. It was the first car repair I ever did besides cleaning spark plugs. Wasn't all that hard, but I had to take the spindles & king pins to a shop to have them fitted together (requires reamer & press, & they charged me $2.50). I had a Motor's Manual from 1955 & it had good instructions. Check out these sites for parts:
