tilt front ends for 49

does anyone have links for tilt front end for this truck. I tried search and US Body is the only one I see so far. And would also like to know which ones were best for installation and fit. Or if anybody had any luck with one from us body. It's really cheap at $1200 and sometimes cheap is alot of headaches and prep work. Thanks in advance.........Salty

I think Fairlane has one for the 48-50 and I'm sure there are others, but none of these one piece fiberglass front ends is going to be a great fit. From what I've heard, they all require some massaging especially in the hood area where it meets the cowl. Good luck...
