Re: 86 crew cab "Full Frame" build

Here is the truck set up at ride height. The long bed was cut down to the size of a short bed just for mock up. I have a short bed to put on it when it gets home.

That looks awsome! This is going to be one mean truck once finished.

Re: 86 crew cab "Full Frame" build

For those of us that can only dream of something like this, we need to live vicariously through this build! Some updates on the progress would be greatly appreciated, this is one of the premier builds I have ever come across.

Re: 86 crew cab "Full Frame" build

I should have some updates in the next week or so. I asked Nate for some help building a weld in dropmember for my F-350 dually so this got put on hold during that. I know not many people on this site like Fords but this is my daily driver and it's going to be the tow rig for the c-10 so it needed a makeover. Here are a few pictures of the truck. It's going to lay the rockers out on 26" dually wheels. The truck is an 2005 but I put a 2012 front clip on it.

Here is the front cross member that's going to replace the factory I-beams and some pictures of the rear.

Holy crap!!! What kind of business are you in and are they hiring in that field

I thought the first pic of the Ford was the finished product.

Re: 86 crew cab "Full Frame" build

I'll let you off the hook on the '86 seeing as there was progress being made on yet another insanely awesome project. That front clip swap looks sweet! I don't care what it is a slammed dually looks killer!

Re: 86 crew cab "Full Frame" build

My only objection to this project is the tires and rims, you should go with drag slick setup on it.. that's just my opinion. The rest is absolutely amazing.

Re: 86 crew cab "Full Frame" build

with 1600 hp and 275 tires, i'm think it'll be able to pull of a burnout at a 65 mph roll, no big deal

Re: 86 crew cab "Full Frame" build

Love the tow rig.

What year front end is the swap from? Is it pretty well bolt on or does it require mods?
