Default 1951 International Front Suspension

Hi everyone.

I'm finally back to work on my first truck, a 1951 International L-110 short box half ton.

I want to build a clean truck that can handle well above average. So I'm wondering if anyone can give me a recomendation on the front suspension. I've been looking at the Art Morrison GT Sport and the No Limit Engineering Wide Ride.

I have never used either, and have not read anything comparing the two. I know that Art Morrison has a great reputation, but No Limit seems to know a thing or two about getting a truck to handle.

The rest of the truck will have a triangulated 4 link rear dana 44, tires will be 20"x8" front and 22"x12" Torq Thrust 2s, and Wilwood brakes at all 4 corners. I'm thinking I would prefer coil-overs over air bags, but with the right argument I could probably change my mind.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Experiences with either Art Morrison or No Limit? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Anyone else ever see the No Limit B10 Ford?

Thoughts on Art Morrison? Anyone?
