i would really look into that kit from speedway dave, my uncle just bought one for his falcon, the axle, spindles all the fasteners to do the job, leaf springs, disc brakes everything but a steeing shaft and box haha. think it was 850ish & 1000-1200 with the upgraded willwood brakes

Looked at it, going to do the same thing, just want to have the moly axle! What's he going to use for a steering box on his?

yep you going to have some front end weight that really not a place to be thin. i would use DOM 250 wall just welding the thin $$wall moly to some$$ moly round stock for the King pins your getting in to a lot for nothing i think. were the DOM is cheap weld s and round stock for pin boss.s is cheap . and if you land the front hard your not going to bend some tubing
