Aaron, I am glad to see someone has gone to an original Ford IFS that should be cheap as hell and easily available by using the Torino frontend. I had been wondering about the width compared to the Slick track width. Time for me to go to the Pick and Pull with a tape measure and see what I can get cheap. Looking forward til you get the fire back into the 428 so I can take a ride in it. That is one badass ride! TR

Thanks truckrat. i will not use inferior cheeby parts on my truck. When i put the torino front stub on i also used a car rear axle so the bolt patern would be the same i think the width would be very close as i have 15x7 front rims and they rub the wheel wells on a tight turn at full lock.
