Re: Project "49 No Buck$"

The cheapest IFS I have seen complete was like 1100 and most are like 1800+ depending on your preference with bagging or what stages you want. I'd say you can considerably do the s-10 cheaper. I got my drop spindles used but pretty much bought new everything, stripped it and painted it and I'd have to look at receipts but I doubt it was even 1100 and we are talking front to back. It can be long debated but s-10 route will be cheaper. It's all preference. If I had money falling into my pockets I'd do IFS's on most builds but the s-10 has its pros and cons. I definitely like having the strength of the s-10 frame though. Just my take on it.
