Re: 1947 Chevy Truck Hotrod

Looking good. I almost used the C10 front suspension but decided to do an S10 chassis swap instead. I noticed you used washers for spacers between the IFS and the frame. It might be just fine, but down the road it wouldn't be to bad to put a couple of plates of steel in there just to give them more contact surface. Did you use all grade 8 Bolts and stuff? Not picking your work apart at all man it looks great, just want it to be as safe as possible. I actually cut my C10 IFS in half and took out and inch, welded it back together. Bolted it in. It was ok, but I decided I would want something to sit a little lower.





Before sliding it completely together. I welded 3/16 plate inside, and planned on plating the outside to before I went with the S10 chassis swap.









I ended up selling it for scrap nobody was interested in it.
