It looks to be the original mercedes front end, but with leaf springs attached... I didn't get a good look at it tho. Hope to look at it a little closer this evening.......

Leaf springs certainly wouldn't have been my first choice.... or second, or third for that matter..... I just don't understand their logic in making such a decision..........

The oil pan does not appear to have been modified, nor does the crossmember... so it actually looks to have fit quite nicely.

As far as ford and dodge motors.... ford is no where near the top of my favorites list, and Dodge, ugh, I hate Dodge. Personal preference, mainly because of my experiences with them.....
