more work on the transition

front is cut for the bags and travel. add drop spindles and the frame will lay on 22s

I am a little old school for the "lay frame & 22s" thing. I am REALLY enjoying your fabrication though - Very Nice Work!

Don't worry about the norm - build what ya like!

Just don't talk too much about the engine if it isn't a Ford or a diesel... LOL

Keep up the great fab work & loads of pics!

Maybe not everyones cup of tea, but I like. The thought and fab work that goes into the build is easy to appreciate.

and yeah its gettin the 460 thats on the 1st page... only none ford parts will be the front suspension and maybe the steering column if i cant get one of the f150 columns i have to work.

heard there was a lincoln with a 460 at a local yard, went up there to get a few things today. also found a 65 f250 custom cab 4x4 in the same yard... looked like a loaded azz truck! robbed a few things off it too.

valve covers

alt brackets. im gunna fab up new p/s brackets

im kinda new to these trucks.. can anyone tell the story on this cluster? i know its a custom cab one, but ive never seen one with the 2 outter gauges like this one. it appears completely factory so im curious is it a 4x4 thing? a 65-66 thing or what?

i have no need for this stuff, but it looked to be in good shape so i figured id save it. maybe some else could use it
