359 pete front end

You could put the car hauler steer axle under it I would replace the u bolts and spring bushings also make sure the shackles are in good shape.I assume you havr the air track on the rear there's not much you can do to lower the air track maybe run some Lo pros just depends on what the look your going for I'd Probly swap it out with a low leaf it would be cheaper to buy a cutoff and replace the axles because the perches and the tourqe arm mounts are diffrent you can buy just the perches and mounts I've changed plenty of air track mounts due to the lower tourqe arm bolts pulling the threads out bit its a lot of work and you usually have to pull the housing out anyways

 

It will Probly set a little high in the rear I've lowerd them with just the leveling I belive it is 11" form bottom of lower framrail to where bag cup rides on air leaf is factory I've drooped them a little thee maybe 2" not really suppose to do it that way but they ride a lot better a lot smoother just make sure to check pinion angle and for vibrations

 

I've seen a guy running local with one

 

1981 peterbilt 359 with 389 20k lb front suspension and axle with dual steering boxes. I wish i had a better picture of this one, didn't think about it until it was done.




1984 peterbilt 359 with 379 carhauler 5" drop front axle and custom 2 stage drop springs!

 

Just curious if this project was complete? Any info on the front axle swap as I'm about to do the same. I already have added a rear cutoff from a 06 low air leaf. Now looking to lower the front

 

Does anybody know where I can find a car hauler front end for sale
