With those that did the ifs conversion kit, did you guys do the rear kit too? How did you guys set up the steering and the brakes? Did the steering mount up to your original? Did you guys buy a new master cylinder and brake set up?[/QUOTE]

I used a TCI rear leaf spring kit i bought from Speedway for about $500 for my 46. It bolted right into the existing holes. Super simple. I used an under cab frame mounted master cylinder. Disc front/ drum rear.
