Welcome to FTE!!! I like 4 link and that's the rout I plan on going with my 59. Got any pics of how you did the CV swap? And of course pics of the truck

I just started an album with a few pics. I will try to take some of the finished front suspension and add them to the album. I'm shopping four links now. Thanks
