I don't think too much should be made of one company having IHC listed in their catalogue. The IHC frame is a simple ladder design, not unlike other manufacturers of that time. The width of the frame where the MII crossmember will be installed is important. After that, it is all about following the instructions.
If all a person has is a HF buzz-box and little or no welding experience, the bolt-in option should be strongly considered.
On this forum, one of the members posted a picture of his welding an IFS to his IH frame. The welds looked like bird droppings. This is totally unsafe.
I like to simplicity of the Crown Victoria Ford IFS modular design. I do not know about the width match-up. I would not take a difference in this area as a deal breaker. https://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&sour ... e_o33SG7es
