At it again !!

Post by V Majestyk »

I'm new to this computer stuff but an old die-hard Ford nut. I've been thru more old trucks&vans than any one Ford nut should be allowed to own. I've escaped rehab and found a '70 F250 camper special that needs rehab more than I do. I don't even have it home yet and I'm scrounging for goodies! I'm in Tucson,AZ. Does anyone know if I can swap in 84'E250 front beams for discs or is there a difference in the vans? I've got a pile of 67-72 truck stuff,just no PS or PB stuff. This 84E250 Van has both and due to terminal rust&wrinkles I've decided to free it's soul and convert it to "doner" status if possible. Just hoping to confirm fit before scattering the van.

You'll probably get more detailed info by asking those tech questions in the appropriate forums, but in a nutshell...no, the van parts will not work, nor will the later truck front suspensions. To convert to disc, you'll need to find a '73-'79 pickup donor.
