97 F150 Front Suspension?

Post by 71F100SportCustom »

Has anyone used or tried to used the front controller arms on a 97 F150 to lower your F100? I went to the junk yard today and can across a 97. Looks the the front controller arms could possible be used with a little fabrication. :?

It would take more than a little fabrication to make them work! Have you looked under your F100?
