Hello hotrodders
I'm putting together a 1940 Chevy 1/2 ton truck and will put in a mII front end.
I'm not to sure which company to use and weather to use a power rack or not.
Ive been thinking that The truck with a small block etc. wont weigh that much so a power rack wont be needed.
What MII system would you recommend?
Thanks.
I have dealt with Chassis Engineering with great success, as a lot of my friends, have also. Good Company to deal with.
If you are putting in Sm. Blk. Chevy. I don't think you will need Power Rack, as the M 2 sits out futher, as to take weight off of front end. Now maybe if a lady is driving it, possibly you might need it. B B is a little heavier, and would be best to use a Power Rack.
If money is tight, I have used Pinto, about same as M 2. The Pinto I used, was one off of a decent Pinto, spent a lot of time on cleaning it up, in order to be able to weld in.
Another one is a Volare, but they are hard to find. I believe the bolt pattern is same M 2.
Check on line to see the best price for name brand, Fat Man, Chassis Eng.; Heidt's, and ECT. There are some newer companies out now, but not to familiar with them.

You can buy a complete unit or a weld-together unit, the choice is yours, based on your mechanical ability.
I like the M2 front end because the Granada 11 inch rotors, Camaro calipers and hoses, just make it so right.
