I'm not sure of the Northern Tool cost, but I just bought a 2 ton hoist from CostCo for $170. American Made, very good quality. No shipping either! :) -Boyo 6 ________________________________________

The right tools will make the difference between a good installation (and a continued happy marriage) and tragedy, either for you or your new engine. :) First be sure you have a hoist which is up to

Good IFS discussions...this list is a great source of information! The only point about IFS swaps which hasn't really been covered is that you're putting a car suspension into a truck. The how-to pag

Yep, Bob Fischer and Mark Self (another regular poster here) have been my sources of info and inspiration on this swap. I'm glad Bob posted his pics, I couldn't find the link in my e-mail. I'm hoping

Check out http://www.inliners.org/ as they have ID guides for all the common engines, as well of gobs of tech tips and vendor links. My "235" turned about to be a 250! -Boyo _________________________

Your best bet is to get in there with a voltmeter and see where the juice is and isn't going to. Don't have one? Get a 6v light bulb and a couple of wires, then solder or tape them to the bulb. Attac

For the Advance Design trucks the IFS from any '72-'87 Chevy/GMC 1/2 ton or Suburban can be bolted on - the newer frames are 1" wider so a little shimming is required, plus fabbing brackets for the s

How old are the shock absorbers? I remember my dad's late 60's Chevy used to get this way when the shocks needed changing. In fact, it used to bounce even on a perfectly flat road! Good luck, -Boyo
