Best IFS Swap?
It will work, but the front frame rails narrow in on the 60-66's so the look will be quite different in the engine compartment? A better swap would be the early and mid 80's I have been reading. Anyone else got a better swap?
In my own opinion if you are looking for a better IFS then use a Mustang II Clone like the one from Martz Chassis Engineering. www.martzengineering.net With a Martz IFS you get plenty of options, and can retain the original inner fenders as they do not need to be cut-off to clear the IFS upper A-arms with a Martz IFS for the 55-59 Trucks. My 2-cents worth.... rico_bob www.ricos-rods-and-relics.com
