Works well on my '40 pickup. Used 2" drop spindles as well. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2007 Posts: 54 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Nov 2007 Posts: 54 | Really depends on what you want to do in terms of originality. You can likely find a dropped axle for your vehicle so that you might retain the original suspension. A mustang II ifs is a good option as well with dropped spindles and airbags if you want to really get it in the weeds. | | | | | Joined: May 2007 Posts: 35 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: May 2007 Posts: 35 | I can fix you up with a dropped axle.
Direct buying/selling should take place in the Swap Meet or in Private Messages or in email. Thank you.

Not sure of width of rails on a 40 but if you want to go IFS checkout crown vic ifs swaps on google. the 2003-2006 ifs drops out with only 8 bolts and can be purchased for few hundred bucks. Looks to be an easy swap. Good luck
