'65 I-beams ARE ifs! They replaced the straight front axle.

maybe i should have been a liitle more clear in my discription, im wanting an a-arm style ifs system so i can get the front end down as low as possible. the front cradle seem to be too low and the pivot points of the i-beams sit too low too. want to keep a ford wheel package on the front as well as the rear.if a ford spindle can somehow be put on a camaro or chevelle front clip thats cool but if not maybe a clip from a fairlain or falcon?? im new to all this

Only one setup will give you a five on five and one half wheel choice.

And its not a ford.

As to the CV it is a metric bolt pattern shared with many other manufacturers.
