I need some opinions on suspensions.

I recently got another stock frame for my 57 to replace the bent one it currently has. The truck is currently running around town with a volarie front and a camaro rear.

I like the volarie for the ride but dont like the fact that there aren't any replacement parts for the torsion bars and I haven't found anyone in my area that can align the front without messing it all up.

So my question is this: If you have some what limited funds, what would you guys do for the front suspension?

Another Volarie? Mustang II? Camaro clip? Keep the straight axle? Make it into a 4x4? I can't afford to do a corvette suspension. I don't want it to low because of the streets around here really suck.

And how much will it drop the front end?

Thanks,
Wess
