hi gilbert i think i've still got a set of 4 levellers you can have for nothing, but i think it's a better idea is to get a set of air shocks to level the car after hitching up. i bought a set for my lincoln continental from rock auto in the us, complete with all hoses, clips schrader valve etc for about $125 delivered to my door. (i was quoted over $500 to get them, without fitting, over here). they currently have them for 1964 falcons, complete with all fittings, for $US45.79 plus $US55.69 delivery charges. ($AU62.59 and $AU76.12) www.rockauto.com/?a=NewsletterLink - then click on ford - 1964 - falcon - either 144cid or 170cid - suspension - shock absorber, then page down to the air shocks. i've used rock auto a number of times for parts for both the lincoln and my '55 crown victoria (before i sold it) and have found them to be extremely reliable. at one stage they allowed me to return a part i wrongly bought and refunded the part cost. (let me know if you want the levellers.) hope this helps. geoff 'n jude |
