bent ibeam
I just picked up a 1968 2 wheel drive F250 that has an ibeam that is bowed toward the front of the truck
. I have a F100 parts truck and from my searches I think I can use those F100 ibeams. I am correct in that assumption? Will I have an issue with the kingpins going from the drum to the discs on the 250? Lastly, exactly how much of the F100 front end can I use on the F250?

check the gvw of each truck to find out what size king pin is used. http://www.fordification.com/tech/str-s ... ations.htm

Re: bent ibeam
