Here is some food for thought on the subject...
I have often heard of guys wanting "dummy" safeties or ones from dubious mechanics. This is very illegal firstly and secondly it is literally taking your life in your hands. I would rather have a mechanic tell me what is wrong rather than overlook serious or life threatening conditions. On my first M38A1 which is not complete yet, I rebuild and replaced all of the suspension components due to the fact that everything was in roughy shape. New springs, shackles, shocks, tie rod ends, tires brakes etc. Another place guys cheap out on is electrical systems. Why spend all that time and money to restore you vehicle and then leave a 50 year old cobbled up wire harness in it just waiting for an electrical fire.
