Re: Frame question

if you have the oportunity (I assume you haven't pulled the trigger on it yet) I would crawl under it and see if the main part of the body was modified to fit onto the newer chassis. the inner fenders and rad support may have been but that would likely not break the bank to buy new parts. repairing the main part of the body to be stock again could be the deal changer.
if looking to get a better ride and a bit lower than stock, with power steering and brakes (I assume discs on the front at least) then what would your plane be if you found an original frame? add on an aftermarket IFS and a better axle ratio out back?
