Over the last few weeks I've had several inquiries on my IFS swap. I've finished the swap and posted some updated photos on my
webshots account. Many people don't consider this a viable swap because of the width. After having the crosmember narrowed, it all came together pretty good. As you can see, the
wheels fit nicely in the wheel well. Those are 16 x 7 torq thrust II's with four inch back spacing. The tires are some junk 225 60 16's that I have on there to move it around. I plan on using a 215 70 16. I'm running 17 x 8's out back but haven't decided on what size tire to use. 3" drop coils are installed but I also will probably add 2" drop spindles to lower it a bit more. If you are considering this swap it really is not as bad as some think. The junk yards are full of 73-87 half tons and the cost of the suspension is relatively cheap. I'm pleased thus far with my results.
