Should I use a torsion bar suspension?

[revedup57truck]

Hey guys! I read somewhere that if you didnt want to replace your front end with a "clip" that you could use the torsion bar system for suspension, like the didnt on the 70's Plymouths.
Has anyone heard of this or tried it or know if it works and how hard it is. I am very new at this restore thing and this sounds appealing over the thought of cutting my truck frame and clipping it. Any advice would be great! thanks!
