Anyone seen these IFS kits?

Post by Russ »

I saw this on Ebay and it looks interesting even though I didn't see one for a dodge. Anyone ever heard of this place? I've had 51,53, and 56 Ford pickups and from memory it seems like the front end and steering was very similar to a Sweptline. I would think it would be fairly easy to adapt one of these kits to a Dodge.

Those are decent prices, but damn you Russ, I need to buy the welder before the front end!!!!!!!!! He he. What are the Fatman kits going for? If within a couple hundred dollars, wouldn't it just be best to go that route so it fits?

Looks like a nice kit if the cross member dimensions were close enough to work. Mopar400

the http://www.fatmanfab.com kits are just about the same, and they have a crossmember that will fit we have at least 2 members that have the kit on and one has been in a few magazines :Thumbsup

LOL, just pull out some of that cash you have stashed in your mattress and buy your self a welder. :lol:

I don't know how these prices compare to Fatman, I thought someone mentioned about $2K there. I haven't paid too much attention as I have a four wheel drive and won't be needing any IFS kit.
