Being a larger size guy (275lbs) are the beam adjusters necessary for additional support? I am doing a total pan off restore and am wondering if these are necessary. I do not plan on raising or lowering from the original height.

Thanks

If your doing a pan off resto anyways I would put adjusters in . When my bigger friends sit up front I definitely notice a big difference especially when braking hard into a corner.
Also if your using the stock springs again remember they are 30+years old so they might have less spring rate. Adjusters may help you get the car to sit where you want it to sit.

If you have the Thing apart now it will save you a lot of time to do it now. And like what was said before it gives you the option of adjusting your front-end height :wink: .
