About to pull the trigger on FatMan Hub to Hub IFS Advice Please
Well, I've pretty much decided to update my much outdated MII suspension. The build on this car, 39 Chevy Master, happened sometime in the early 80's. A Heidts front crossmember was installed along with, I think is, MII power rack and suspension components, although they could be pinto I suppose.
I've looked quite a bit online and really like the Fatman hub to hub setup. I'd like to go with the Shockwave kit. What mods do I have to make to get this to work. Looks like I've got to cut the spring hats off and install the upper supports for the Shockwave's.
I also like the straight air bag route but the Shockwave system looks more adaptable with lots of adjustment potential. So--am I over thinking this thing or on the right track?

Is it going into a build, or making a trip to NM?
