i almost feel like if you're going to do ans IFS up front and nothc the frame you might as well try to find a bagged s10 and do the frame swap.

that's probably because i don't know too much about it but if you're going to go that far with it.. might as well.

i DID see the drop axle writeup on sid's site.. that doesn't look too bad.
not quite as easy as hacking off a couple of turns on a coil spring but not too terrible.

thanks for the info.. i'll start doing some research.

If your looking to bag a 47-55 1st series Porterbuilt fabrication is coming out with a kit that's going to involve all c10 spindles. Nate posted a pick on Instagram last week that showed it might be a trailing arm kit in the rear and a dropmember up front. Top notch!!

My bagged 3100:

"El Gordo 54"

This truck was left to die in a field for decades where it got the tender touch of Mother Nature. After getting it's fair share of bullet holes and broken glass my Builder rescued this beauty and gave me a call. 47-53 Trucks are common so that's why I decided to make this 1954 something special and uncommon. I'm planning on enjoying it for a few months and when the time comes it will be sold to the highest bidder on eBay. I will let the world dictate what this American Time Capsule is worth.

No mention on the site of his forum. I'll have to be patient. :)

As someone who's currently fighting track width issues because I'm using a 1969 frame under my 50, this is awesome.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59
 
Nice truck leevon. Is there any way someone could get a shot of where the floor pan meets the back wall of the cab. Is it stitch welded or just spot welded and covered with seam sealer from the factory?

LEEVON 11-01-2013 11:16 PM

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59
 
Thanks, they are spot welded along the lower lip on the cab wall to the floor, no seam sealer.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59
 
It's on air but it had been done 10 yrs ago. Simple pipe notch in the rear just enough to lay rocker. The truck is in my dads garage in Toronto. Ill be living there again in a year and ill start on the frame. Gonna buy a new vette wreck and build a tube chassis laying some big billets
