Hello......Here are some pictures of my installation os a 1963 IFS unit on my
1950 Chevy truck. The measurement shown is 21" from the front of the frame
rail to the forward upper A-arm bolt (see photo). The cross member was cut
and narrowed as with the cross link between the idler arm & pitman arm. I
also added Power steering using components from Chevy Duty's Power steering
kit. I only used the steering box bracket from kit. Also used their 1963
disc brake kit. Other power steering components are from a 1969 chevy truck.
Using stock springs the truck sits about 3-4 inches too high. This can be
corrected by using lowering springs or by airbags in which I will be
installing soon. Any other questions, please let me know.
