    steady rest

    Did Ford discontinue the front steady rest on the 1956 Ford Fairlane line-up late in the year of 1956? If Ford did this can i assume the steady rest is not essential at a motor mount & would be safe to not install it? Thank you for your time in advance. Old Gas

    slinger

    Can you tell me how essential or important the oil slinger on the crankshaft I am understanding it keeps the oil away from the crank seal. Would I be correct in saying that? The slinger was missed on a re-build. Thank you in advance for your input. Oldgas.
