Welcome to the forum :D

That does look like a solid truck to work with. Looks like it needs a little 'pick me up' What are your plans for it?

The auto manufacture's keep part's very similar over the year's .To transfer in updated frt suspension into these truck's is not a huge problem.The gauge of metal in the newer crossmember and a arms is heavier also.
