I have a serious question???

I have an opportunity to acquire a complete suspension system from a 2015 F350 for $100.

My serious question is...will it bolt into my 1991 F250???

Need to move fast on a decision on this, so if anyone knows, please fill me in.

TIA

Don

I have seen people bolt a full suspension from an '07 super duty onto these trucks but havent been around enough of the 6.7L trucks to know if it is as similar.

The lenght(from bolt hole to bolt hole) of the springs would be the biggest concern.

if your 91 is a 4X4 no. the 2015 has coil springs in the front, the 91 has leaf springs.
and the rear is a different width, i believe it is 1 1/2 inches wider than the 91. so the springs will be twisted a bit.
plus the driveshaft will have to be modified for the universals to work. and the brake system will have to be modified to work with the rear disc setup.

can it be done?? yes. is it worth it??? probably not.

A complete suspension system for $100? Even if it doesn't fit, jump on it!!! You could part that out and make a lot more than $100. Maybe even enough to upgrade your current suspension.
