What is the best IFS kit for a 55 2nd series?

[blindman]

ok i guess im a apple builder i choose nolimit for the way it was built this kit is massive compare to m11 i live in va so fatman suspension is 3 hrs away i had thoughts of gettin theres because close by (if something went wrong i could take it to the source) but i talked with rob and i gave them a shot and boy im glad i did i been driving all summer my truck drives and acts wile crusin like a friggin caddy but when i wanna hit back roads it hanles like a go kart im serious as a heart attack nothing but the best top notch support always nice and curtious even though there in ca mind you they defantly will be my choice if i were going to doit all over again and i will choose them on my next hopefully black widow build ..... just look at my build post and judge for yourself it may cost more now but do it rigjht the first time and be done with it then drive your ass off thats why we build these trucks right?

So are you saying that entourage guy and I did not do it right?

[blindman]

no im not saying you did it wrong im just saying some parts are better made than others like building anything you use best materials you can or can afford there are differnt levels to the car building also but a mustang 11 copy vs custom design and built setup is totally differnt both acheive better than 1950s handling but its what ever you want to use but if it were mine i go no limit all the way ... that being said if i had a trailer queen i was to use as show with mirrors and chrome id go art morrison but i cant afford art frame on a daily driver its simple as this do and buy and build as you wish like wideside72 said its a budget build so depending on his budget really

Man I know you didn't mean it that way I was just pushing buttons.lol

I just don't like how people get into a my thing is bigger than yours game.lol They all work and there will always be something nicer but that does not make one right and the other one wrong. Camaro Clips, Monte Carlos, Nova Clips all work fine and in the right hands can be installed beautifully. Mustang 2 work fine also, are they the nicest unit available NOPE, but that does not make them a wrong choice either. There is always something nicer. Just like there is always a nicer car or a nicer build.

My advice to any home builder is to build what you like, and build it however you want. There is no right and wrong, and just because you don't have 2500-3000 for a IFS doesn't mean you can't be happy with another choice.

BTW I've seen your build its a beauty and it speaks for itself.

Just "pulling your pinata" as my girlfriend says.

Cause if you're serious then Bam and me and a couple others might have to lay a snare for ya!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Despite our disagreements; few as they are, I like to think we're "friends that haven't met yet" - well, at least in most cases. Best, Dan

I have a Fatman stage 2 frontend in my 57. It's been in for about 12 years, maybe longer ??? I haven't had any problems with it other than it has squeeked since day one. Another thing that bugs me (rattles my old bones) is that everyone that builds after market suspension kits , front or rear uses poly or urathane type bushings. I think it would be great if someone built kits with rubber bushings for us old guys. If I did my frontend again I would go with a Camaro clip (rubber bushings).
Rob if you read this, do you have any thoughts on suspension kits with rubber bushings
