I have a question regarding front suspension on a 91 c3500hd with solid I beam axle. I am curious if there are any kits or if anyone has converted from leaf springs to a link style setup on these chassis or would it be something I would have to fabricate myself?
A little background on the truck I swapped a 47 fargo cab and front sheet metal onto the chassis and it has a r2.8 cummins crate motor with a dodge 8 speed transmission. The reason I am curious about the link style setup is so I can lose the 8 inches or so off the front of the frame so it doesn't stick so far past the front fenders. Now before everyone says I should have used a different frame that wasn't an option as the guy I'm building it for wanted this setup for whatever reason so I am just trying to adapt the best I can. Here is a couple pics of the truck so far
