Pics of that "Scotts's" indep front end - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I think someone was looking for pics of this setup? I saw it this weekend at GG's in Scottsdale AZ and took a few pics.

If you wanna see more hot rod pics I posted about 50 from the show, they are listed under "event coverage" then "goodguys Scottsdale 03"

It's a GM 6.0, so it's LS based. Those are just covers made to go over the valve cover and hide the coil packs.

Glen- That was me wanting to know more about the truck. Brad2 posted the pic he had found showing it was a Scott's front end. I have looked at their stuff already, and passed on it. It looks like I am going with a Progressive Auto front end instead.

Thanks for the pics though. I really enjoy event coverage, and your site is a treat in itself....

Another resource you might check out is Industrial Chassis here in Phoenix. Steve really knows suspension geometry and makes a nice product for a truck. I think the MII platform most of those companies are basing their stuff off is too light weight.

IC uses the Dakota parts and fabs their own crossmembers.

OMG that 48 of yours is awesome. You are a very lucky man to have that to drive on Sunny Sunny Sundays

Glen,
We looked at a lot of the MII style front ends. We decided against them because of looks and bumpsteer. The Progressive unit uses C-4 components, and a T-bird rack. Here's a couple of pics below. This shows it set up for coil overs. I'll be using ART Shovkwaves.

Dinnut,
Those are Colorado Customs "Slater Six" wheels. Here's another pic of it from SEMA . Here's the thread...SEMA Show

N2TRUX,

Could you please give me a link to where I can find more info on the C4 suspension. Is it from Progressive Automotive? I didn't see any "kits" for 67-72.

Thanks,
Tom
