OK, so I hope I don't piss off the purists, but, I'm looking seriously into a couple of IFS packages straight from the boneyard. I've seen the Alterkation and XV setups and WOW, they are excellent! But, I'm an old hot rodder... so... Recently, on another board, a gent posted some pics of the front cradle from a 03-09 Ford Crown Victoria. He's putting it into an old pickup. I have a 77 F body Road Runner. The track width of the Crown Vic and F body are pretty close. The good part is, the Crown Vic front suspension completely unbolts from the car. Complete, hub to hub with power steering rack and a-arms. The Police car versions are the best. Since hot rod truck guys have been puting Volare front suspensions into old trucks, why not the Ford? I'm also playing with the idea of fitting a T-Bird independent rear suspension as well.
