Has anyone used this IFS?
I'm looking at getting a tubular IFS for my truck to lighten thing up. I'm going to be using it for drag racing and wanted something light but that could also handle the weight of the front of my truck. The front of my truck weighed 3160lbs last year. I saw this company that makes dropmembers and also complete chassis. I just wanted to know if anyone has used there stuff?
http://www.roadstershop.com/products...ick-up-chassis I know its expensive but it looks like a nice setup. I like how they use the sealed front bearing assembly.

Wow, that's bad ass. Too bad the chassis is above my TOTAL BUDGET, damn. I guess if you got it...

Re: Has anyone used this IFS?
They make a really nice chassis that performs extremely well. It is spendy, but a nice piece.
I don't think they make any IFS kits specific for the C10 yet. We offer a replacement crossmember that will shed some weight and give you revised geometry. If you have any questions feel free to send me a PM with your number and I can give you a call to discuss. Nate

Re: Has anyone used this IFS?
Thanks guys, I talked with the roadster shop yesterday and they do sell just there IFS but it's crazy money. It's probably worth it but I don't have that kind of money to spend on a dropmember. I will call Nate and Porterbuilt and talk to him.
Thanks Brett

I love the roadster shop but they price somethings way too high for us normal folks.
