Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: May 2010 Posts: 18 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2010 Posts: 18 | After my son sliding off the road due to a flat tire with a 4" drop axle followed by snapping a mono leaf in half I am hesitantly thinking of an IFS for my 59 1/2 ton.
Has anyone done IFS and kept the 6 banger and 3 on the tree?
Would like to add a new IFS cross member but keep the stock one for the motor mounts? Has this been done?
Thanks
