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

Yes, the IFS crossmember sits to the rear of the original.

I have wondered about this as well. My plan was to remove the original crossmember (because I thought I had to) and make new engine mounts that attached to the frame.
