'71 CREWCAB SHORTBED DUALLY

Post by Alstoyz »

This is the fresh canvass I just recently traded my '71 F350 4x4 dually for. :D My plan for this one is to start with converting the front suspension over to a '75 dually front disc setup, and eventually adding some dropped I-beams and a rear hanger/shackle kit. Install a '70 Mustang 22 gallon fuel tank in the rear frame rails and removing the in-cab tank. My plans are to run the 240 I-6 that the PO "Greg Morton" had installed but eventually replace it with a 460/C6 combination. Add a roll pan, and a set of 40/20/40 seats from 92-97 F350. Wish me luck!!! :lol:

Geeze.. Seeing a bunch of running crews on here recently and everyone getting to play with them makes me want mine back soooo bad! But I just have to wait as it is still getting work done. My big worry now is that when I get it back, it will be so perfect that I am afraid I will scratch it when putting it all back together. I almost wish I hadn't done a complete frame off restoration. If I hadn't, I would be messing with it right now!

Congrats on your new project and its good to see that crew stay in the Fordification family!! :thup:

Well, between honey do's, the stepsons baseball tournament. I got a few things done on the crew today!!! :D Got the I-beams, springs, and 2 wheels back from my buddy's paint & blast shop. I was able to install new studs on the rear hubs to allow the installation of dual wheels. It appears I will be needing to widen the rear inner wheel wells to allow for clearance of the inside tire...
