First post to the forum! I have a 55 2nd gen truck. I also have a 1990 c4 vette I pulled the motor, trans, and rearend for the truck. I hear you can use the front suspension as well.. My question is can I use the c4 stock crossmember? Or no? What has anyone done? Any advice please!

Use the search box above set to this site and "task force C4" as the search term, lots of links to build threads show up, I think there are 2-3 guys doing them.
