suspension replacement
I need advice!
I have a 1950 Chevy P/U I'm In process of restoring.
I am putting a 350 and auto trans. locker spool rear end and new wiring , gauges etc.
My big desicion is FRONT END.
I want power steering, and power brakes.
Should I build up my straight axle, Buy an aftermarket suspension like Fat man MS 2 or is there a front clip from another car or truck I could fit under it. I have a 70 camaro front clip but it is to wide and I dont want to have to narrow.
THANKS for any suggestions

Cool Running - The Camaro that has it's steering box in front of the x-member is an excellent IFS for your chevy trk. I have done this swap many times & it is perfect. You have to be carefull not to get the car setting tooo low.....measure carefully.......DonDon Meyer, PhD-Mech Engr(48 GMC Trk/chopped/cab extended/caddy fins & a GM converted Rolls Royce Silver Shadow).
