Jim Meyer Racing IFS Install

I have purchased the heavy duty Jim Meyer racing IFS kit for my 1972 C/10. Currently in the process of removing the fenders, grill, and radiator carriage to start the tear down. I went with the power rack and pinion steering and 12 inch 4 piston caliper Wilwood brakes. I also elected to do the Viking double adjustable coil over shocks wish a 850lb spring since I am BBC. I am going to take some before and after pics to share. Has anybody else out there done one of these?

Never heard of that company, but it looks like they have a pretty sweet setup.

Best of luck with the install, we'll love to see pics!

Pretty sure they are located on Oregon coast. They make a bunch of custom stuff, like entire new chassis. They were on an episode of Roadkill (they are on YouTube and worth a watch). Here is a link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lATw...227E64499889DB

Re: Jim Meyer Racing IFS Install

Jim Meyer has been making IFS & suspension kits for these trucks loooooong before everyone else jumped on the bandwagon. How dare you start a post about a fancy new IFS kit without pictures!!!
