Re: Front suspension feedback

That Speedway kit is all bolt in and all you need to do it is a hand full of wrenches and a half inch drill and some good jack stands. The bolt in crossmember adds a bit of cost but if you don't or aren't set up to weld it is a great way to go. One thing besides being bolt on that I like is that you can adjust it a bit to get your truck to sit perfect.

if you can weld or don't have to pay someone to weld it A weld in kit from Heidts shows to be 2200.00 list price if their catalog is up to date. https://www.heidts.com/shop-by-appli...55&y=1947-1954

You would have to check to make sure of the price, but The Heidts kits are pretty well the standard of the industry.

Either way should give you a pretty decent setup.
