front suspension on aluminum framed t-bucket
...ok b4 some one questions the sanity of an aluminum frame for a few reasons such as it can be brittle and harder to weld then steel, and its properties are such that most ppl wouldnt see it as a practical idea i happen to be coming across a decent amount of aluminum c channel that is ruffly 8 feet long and is about 8-9 inches wide and would be more then heavy compaired to the frame that was used in the alumi-tub made on american hot rod (dont get me started on how i hate that guy) but yea... basically im looking for a independant front suspension that would bolt on i know many people use mustang two front ends for suspension but im not sure on how i would attach them i mean if it came down to it i could theroectically weld all the mounts out of aluminum and the bushing would seperate them but for strangth i think it would be a wiser choice to bolt it on but i knoew kits for the front ends can be expensive and im looking to do this as cheap as i can being a teen ager
im a kid in autobody threw boces at school i have an idea about basic suspensions and stuff but what im planning is a little over my head and well i will take all the help i can get

Ok gang. It's been awhile. With everything that was going on taking care of my mom's affairs and making a few needed mods to the Healey, it was June before anything really got rolling on this...
