    Thanks for this forum!

    I am wanting to start working on my '38 Dodge Coupe and turning it into a street rod. Anyone know what's the best (& easiest) front end to get? I have heard S10 or Crown Vics. Any ideas?

    My '38 Dodge business coupe has the stock front suspension.I have heard that the only way to do IFS is to stub the frame. Rebuild or replace the springs and add some lowering blocks.If you get the springs from St.Louis Spring,you will have to take out some leaves to bring it down.Check out the P15-D24 Forum for more mopar specific mods.
