Just for giggles thought I would throw this out.  I have a 48 pilot house I'm building and my step son is working on a 51 Ford pickup, both have similar front spring set ups.  Took a few rough measurements and looks like the axles are very similar in width and mounting.  Ford has more of a drop in the axle just wondering if a person could swap the Ford into the Dodge?  If it would work it looks like that would give a whole lot of options for power brakes and I believe the Mustang stuff mounts to the spindles plus it looks like it would be an automatic lowering for the Dodge?  I am by no means any kind of mechanic in regards to how things fit but visually it looks right.  Any one every try anything like this?
