Most go IFS rears in the rear then the standar rears in the front, with either banana shaped or extended shackels. Gives them better flex i think.

You are much better off with standered rears in front.

you will get all the flex you will need with rears up front unless you want to run a stiff leaf pack

i had ifs rears in the front of mine with a drop front cross member and it flexed awesome!
All i had to do was weld on new mounts for the rear of the leaves, but it was a little tricky because of the taper of the chassis. Nothing a bit of steel angle didn't fix though.

Nice truck but did he think he could hold onto it if it went over
Read the Yoyta bible IFS rears are in that

He should of pushed harder. Or just told Scotty to have a go, and stood back as it bounded of the limiter and broke everything (oh, that was when it had the L series diesel, and was even slower than the pink braclet wearer himself)
. What has the shorter centre pin to eye length, the IFS rears or the STD rears.
