moved some earth

Well, coming home the other day making a sharp left turn on a gravel road, my power sterring decided to go out. Being a one-handed (actually 2 fingered) driver, I proceeded to slide straight through the turn and nailed a steep bank. Well, my lower a-frame got bent so the wheel was all out of wack and the fender and bumper got bent pretty bad. I called my buddy and he couldn't believe the ram actually "moved earth." He especially couldn't believe it when she made it home under its own steam with both front wheels angled and pointed different ways. So, my question is, what year dodge lower a-frames are interchangable?

Your best bet would be to find the suspension from under a newer truck. I dunno whether the change was made in 91 or 91.5, but the a arms are a little more stout than what your 90 has. Don't use gasser stuff, its's even weaker yet.

Will the newer stuff even work, seeing as how in 91.5 they changed from an 8" main frame to 10?
