Hi everybody,
I bought a 56 Dodge Pickup (but I have to wait 6 weeks till the PU arrives), in between I will do some preperation for changing the frontend. My task is to install a IFS, but what kind of IFS? I live in Germany and it is very hard to find a perfect frontclip.
I have a Jag front clip in my garage. Does anyone know if this will fit? The wide of the jag is 152cm = 59,8inch. I do not know the exact wide of the Dodge.
I would be very thankful for any kind of information.

Joerg

You can use the jag front clip without cutting it down but will have to have your front wheels with the proper setback to fit into the fenders. The front clip of my dodge is at 57 1/2'' it is not a 59 but I suspect it is real close to yours. You can also cut down the jag to adapt and fit your frame rails, just build a different cross beam between the rails, anything can be done with just a little thought. Pictures will also help.
