I know the mustang 11 frontend is a common piece, but whats my options other than that,some say use the z-28 camaro and some say s-10! anybody use one of these,how's the best way to join these chev front clips any info of photos thanks.
I would suggest a dropped axle from 55 Mercury here on the HAMB www.droppedaxles.com There are lots of pics and a tech article of how to do it on your truck.
Depends on what you are after with it. Ride quality? Ride height? Wide wheel/tire? Brakes? Camaro clips are a little wide unless you want to run a narrow wheel up front. Limited and expensive options/parts. S10s are a little narrow unless you want a wide front wheel. Great ride, very versatile, cheap parts. MII are also on the narrow side, ride varies by spring rate also very versatile. Stock with dropped axle is a good option if you arent concerned with ride quality, handling. There are brake upgrades for stock axle out there also. I have a 50 on a S10 frame. Truck had a camaro clip when I bought it but I was unhappy with the stance and wheel options. Mine is on air ride now with 8" wheels up front and im very happy with the results. It was a lot of work though.
