Hello,

I'm new to this forum and I can see that there is a lot of knowledge to be sought here. So, I decided I'm going to take advantage of it with my next build.

I am going to start a 53 5 window 3100. I want to make it a daily driver/sleeper pickup with modern drivetrain and suspension. I have been looking into chassis modifications/swaps and have decided that I'd like best to keep the original chassis but install a better suspension. I have been doing some research and have come across the Art Morrison Truck Front & Rear Suspension Kits (page 44- http://www.artmorrison.com/2006cat/2014catalog.pdf ). I think if functional, this would be a very cool thing to do just because I could keep the original chassis.

I was wanting to get a few opinions on the matter. Any first hand experience with these kits?

Thank y'all for your time.
