Thumbs down re: Mustang II suspention?

I agree with tomslik. This is one situation where I wouldn't recommend using a Mustang II front end. You might try the IFS off a mid 70's Chevy 2wd pickup. I understand they are almost a bolt in for AD trucks (a bit too wide though) and shouldn't be too difficult to adapt to yours.
