Question Looking for some suggestions.

Hi. I am a Mopar nut and I have an idea for using an Intrepid 3.5 eng/trans to build a mid-eng vehicle. What I am looking for is suggestions for a suspension. I am looking for something that I can take as an assy that will retain the suspension geometry. I don't want something with struts. I am willing to do some fabrication for suspension components, but I would like to keep it to a minimum. Ideally it should be a type of double wishbone suspension. My vehicle is going to be fairly light so I don't need something very heavy-duty. If anyone is familiar with a vehicle that may have something like this, I would appreciate the info. I hope to start this after I finish the '82 1/2T short box that I am customizing. It will be shaved, slammed and have a convertible hardtop. It has a mild built 318, O/D 4spd manual with 3.55 8 3/4 posi. I look forward to hearing everybodies comments and ideas. Steve.

I guess i fall into the 'newbie' category. Toyota just bought back my tacoma cause its frame was a peice of crap, so i went back to my roots and got a DODGE! planning on making some adjustments and upgrades to my new baby, being that it was a 60 year old fella that owned her before me, and everything on 'er is stock. Already got started by yanking off the "grandpa" cap haha
