I love when people post videos that are exactly what you were looking for. Especially when it's not their normal content so you know they went out of their way to post it to help the next person! Thank you Randall!
I am really glad that my video helped. I felt there was a bit of lacking information for the F250 version. Plus, not everyone wants to do a Crown Vic swap.
Great video! Doing a front suspension swap on mine (71) to a disc brake setup from a 76. Adding power steering while I’m at it. Good info and adding in the torque specs was even better.
Nice I just painted my brake calipers the only thing i didnt like was you didnt paint the back of the brake calipers its just some peace of mind great job either way!
I have the same concern the top of my tires are leaning outward a little not to much. F250 camper special 2wd. The top of the spindle where kingpin slides thru has a little play not sure if it's normal or not. Share if you find something.
Thank you for the video. I have a 72 f250 with drums I believe I can get a 77 f350 with disks. Do you think I could swap them? I'm not that mechanical but my brother in law is. Is this a possible swap?
Yes it’s definitely possible. I’ve heard of quite a few people swapping the disc brakes from the 73-79 trucks to these older 67-72. But unfortunately I’m not really sure what it takes to do it.
It took me about 4 days, roughly 4 hours per day. But a lot of time was spent trying to remove the rubber bushing from the end of beams. And a bunch more time making sure I had the proper torque specs. If those things weren’t an issue I think it could be an easy two day job or roughly 8 hours.
