Hey Keith: I was re-reading some of my saved Msg's and ran across your
question below. Did you ever get an answer? I to Have a 55 TF and Im in
the process of installing the same front clip you were referring to. I
got a good set of A-arms ET from an 84 cutlass and 11 inch front rotors
off a full size 86 B body Buick. One thing Ive learned is most older
full sized B body gm cars have a 5 on 5 bolt pattern and 5/8 stud hole
size. This is obliviously important when matching up the mag wheels you
want to use. So we need to take this into account. I hope this info will
help you. Please let me know what you have found out.
Thanks
George
55 = TF

Greetings,
I'm new to the list and working on a 55 2nd series 1/2
ton. Need help with suspension swap I'm planning for
early next year. This issue of Classic Truck Trends
has a article on subframe swap for `47-`59 Chevys. It
fits right into existing frame without widening and
uses either `78-`88 B-body (Impala/Caprice) or G-body
(Malibu/Monte Carlo/ Grand Prix) donor parts. Does
anyone know if rear from B-bodys will fit and if any B
or G-bodys came with rear discs? I'd like to use as
much from donor car as possible. Engine, trans,
steering column, seats, etc. Any help or advice would
be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Keith
