I had to temporarily assemble my CV100 for a move up the street. The cap is on it solely for convenience, it's coming off soon.

The cap looks like it fits the later model Fords. Nice looking cap.

If it starts to rain, they'll tax the splash.
If you want to fish, they'll tax the bass.
If you plant a yard, they'll tax the grass.
If you don't play nice, they'll fine your *$#!

It was a royal pain finding a CV front clip with out going broke here is Chi. But if it turns out like that it will be well worth the reward. Some Slam bags on and it'll be all laid out.

Did you use the CV power steering pump?
And what did you have to do to tie in the steering?

I'm using an entire Crown Vic chassis, 1988 cop car. Drivetrain, steering, etc.

I used the CV column, shortened 4 1/2 inches. Built an adapter out of the hub of the car wheel to mount a truck steering wheel. I need to go over to the truck salvage outside of Waco and find 1 universal joint to get it tied together like it needs to be.
