HevyHauler your are correct about the engineering and testing. I've got a very nice 56 F100 that I won a complete chassis at the F100 Nationals from No Limit Engineering. It's set up with a mustang II in front, 4 bar in the rear and power rack and pinion. It also has front and rear swaybars with adjustable shocks. This chassis does not twist or flex like the OEM. The truck handles like a slot car and rides like a dream. Rolling down the highway close to 100 MPH there is no vibration and truck tracks straight as can be. There is no way to describe other than phenominal.
I must admit it's a high end chasis and I'm very fortunate to have won it. Probably if I had to pay myself it would be hard to swallow the cost of this particular chassis but wanted to tell you that a custom chassis will bring your truck up to a whole new level of technology.
