More IFS questions
Looking to buy a Mustang II IFS for my 1950 Chevy 3100. Read lots of info here on them but still have a couple questions. Right now I am looking at TCI, Heidts, and the Chassis Engineering bolt-in crossmember. Other than a bit easier installation is there any reason to go with the C.E. bolt-in? Between the other two Heidts seems to be more expensive. Is it a better product or just a more expensive product? Suggest away if there is a better product out there for roughly the same $.
Thanks, Bob |

Re: More IFS questions
before you buy any front end setup contact the sales dept. for a list of people who install their product, contact them and ask for some customer contacts. in my past technical searches on "bolt on" front suspensions never have i found anyone that has a 100% bolt on. lots of marketing going on. buyer beware! anyone interested in a nigerian lottery ticket its a sure winner!

Re: More IFS questions
What kind of budget do you have for the COMPLETE front suspension, not just the crossmember, and do you plan on doing any welding, dont forget the master cyinder upgrade also!

Re: More IFS questions
I saw that on Ebay too. Have been too busy the last couple weeks to do anything with the truck. Have heard good things about the Chassis Engineering MII crossmember, just have to decide if it is worth the extra $.
Welding isn't a problem and I don't really have a fixed IFS budget. Obviously don't want to spend more money than I need to though. Bob |
