Re: Scott's IFS vs No Limit

I am not trying to put down anyones products but I have heard a lot of things in reference to Fatman. I have heard that their full frame system is top notch but I have also talked to many people who used their IFS and they were not happy with it. I am about 1 1/2 hours from them and decided against them. The main reason was because they did not have a bolt on kit. Had I known about Scott's, I would have bought one of their bolt on IFS kits. Instead I bought a bolt on kit from Chassis Engineering. The good thing about this kit is that I do not have to box my frame. Their kit and Scott's are very similar. Their instructions ( I am certain Scott's kit is the same way) were very specific and if you follow them there is no way you can mess the installation up. After I installed mine, I saw in one of my catalogs that a rack and pinion steering system is now available. Had this been available I may have gone that route and simply bagged the front end to make the truck ride better. After all my 2005 Chevy truck uses a straight axle. I do plan on attaching front and rear torsion bars. We are very close to wiring it and hopefully will have it in the upholstery shop in a month. Then the wood bed and the 2 year project will be over. Then pictures for you guys.
