A straight axle is way better than IFS, its more durable and there are a lot less things to bend or break. If a straight axle wasn`t better than IFS there would be a lot less people doing solid axle swaps.

WOW....another thread turned into solid axle vs. IFS. I agree with RBX, find one that is in the best shape and everything else can be changed.

Haha, there are other threads about SFA vs. IFS for off road? That's like arguing whether the world is round or flat.
