Whats up guys im new to the forum as a member but have read and learned alot in the past. Im putting a 6.0 LS motor in my truck and wanting to swap to a solid front axle strength and reliability for the new power of the 6.0 and also for some light off roading/flexing on things. That all being said i think i have most of the motor swap figured out now i need help with the SAS. I have been doing alot of reading on other peoples builds and have a few questions to help me do it right the first time and try to save some money wile im at it. Im wanting a D60 from a 78 or 79 ford if i remember right. My main goal is ride quality. not saying im expecting it to ride like a caddy but I DD the truck and I would like to keep the ride near how it rides with IFS. Along with allowing for good flex and mild off roading.
Question 1: 47 in or 52 inch springs? and why?
Question 2: I have herd of people cutting hangers off of trucks at the junk yard and using them instead of buying the 800$ kit. Does anybody know what hangers would work?
Question 3: How much power can a D60 handle?
Question 4: Whats the cheapest way to safely do the steering?
And is there any other tips to help keep a decent ride?
Thanks Ahead of time
