I have disc brakes, a modern saginaw steering box all on my original 47 front end. No real nead to change every thing just to get to another worn out OLD front end. If you insist on gutting the front end then go to a Mustang II set up.

Just my 2 cents.

It's easier to get forgiveness than permission!
