Welcome to the list!

I'd investigate the rear from a Dakota.  With the disk brakes you'll need to
make adjustments to your braking system too, and the Dakota brake system
would be matched pieces that should be easy to make work together.

I don't have any experience with the Dakota stuff, so I'm just guessing...

Hello all!

I just found this group and wanted to say hello and ask a few questions.  I
just bought a 56 chevy pickup.  I have decided that I am going to use the
crossmember from Industrial Chassis.  I like the idea of the Dakota front
IFS.  A truck suspension for a truck.  The thing I am not finding is info
for a dodge rearend that will work.  I would like to have the same bolt
pattern for both front and rear so that I can have a spare tire.

Also, the truck is in Texas, and I live in Iowa.  I am not looking forward
to driving down and picking the truck up.  If anyone knows of any good
companies that transport, please let me know.

Thanks!
James
