Both good products (Total Cost Involved copied Heidt's), but I like Heidt's quality control better.
Thanks for the info Bob
If your not looking for a show piece the fatmans kit are real good and they are priced better
I have heard complaints about Heidts and Fatmans............although, I have no experience with either.
My first choice would be Heidts.My last choice would be Fat Mans.
I have used Heidts quite a few times w/great results.
Heidt's definitely gets my vote, Fat Man stuff would be a ways down the list.
Gimme some batwings and a split wishbone any day...
On a more serious note...I went to a shop that resurfaces clutch discs and got some little pucks made to repack my friction shocks. Loaded them up and dropped them back in. It took two or three long trips to get the front end to lose it's "memory" as they broke in.:3dSMILE:
The frictions are from a Morris commercial truck...year unknown...I just liked the castings and they make neat-o headlight stands.:whacked:
Forgot to say...they are on my Rusty A.
I am wondering exactly how much welding is needed to install the new IFS. My welding skills are basically limited to burning myself so i was really hopeing there is a bolt on or atleast minimal welding.
It takes welding skills with all of them that I know of, you have to attach the crossmember solidly to the frame. I may be wrong, I am using a stock pinto suspension my self with aftermarket spindles and larger disc's from Yogi's. It will work nicely with a tenth of the cost.
There are some bolt-in.....I thinf R&B made one.
