M2 IFS for 69 truck

I can't find any kits that will fit my 69 truck.. I could swear I saw one out there, but I'm just not having any luck locating one now that I need one.. Has anyone seen one with power rack and pinion?
Thanks for the help.

I called them about it. I think it was like $4k for the whole kit. Too expensive for me. I think I am going to try to build my own instead. There are some new pictures of a truck with this kit on it in the pictures forum, under Cevy and GMC trucks. The pictures are posted by N2TRUCKS(something like that). The truck is blue.

Hey if you want to take a trip to Modesto I can build you a custom front xmember and control arms with mustang II disc brakes.

On second thought... It looks like the suspension hasn't changed substantially from 67 all the way thru the 74-90-whatever body style? If that's the case, I can just get drop spindles, and power steering gear, etc.... I think?

You can put a complete 73-87 crossmember under your truck and gain a 5 bolt disc brake front end....

That's what it looked like to me while ravaging the junk yard... How hard is it?

It is a bolt in procedure. I have an 87 suburban crossmember going in to my 72 2wd blazer.

Fatman Fabrications makes a MII suspension for our trucks. They have three or four different kits from the stock type a-arms to polished tubular to air bags. I have the stage III which is the polished tubular a-arms with Carrera coil overs. A couple pictures in link in sig.
