carcrafter22 -- trying to do calculations on putting cv ifs and tbird irs c/w 4.6 and auto tranny. Truck is presently lowered on solid front axel. Right now I am trying to calculate where I will be with after installation, so what I am looking for is the new dimension between the spindle center line and the underside of the frame at the new cross member. If you could give me the distance form C/L of the spindal to ground and the distance from underside of frame to ground I would be able to create that difference on my truck and mock up front and rear heights so that I cMyan see what the final result will be. My front end may go up from where it is now. Thanks Rick

been a while since i have worked on it but i pulled it out to take a quick pic. finally got the wheel color and WWW tire combo i was looking for. been buying up stuff to put on her, and just waiting for the weather to straighten up a bit to start wrenching. and after the "faux" patina, the natural is coming around pretty well.

I know it's not a bump but the frames are the same from 66 to 67 and on. My 66 has a 05 crown vic frontend with 17x9 front and 17x10.5 rear.

looking good custom cabby... your patina is a lot more distressed than mine. and i gotta say, there is nothing like driving around with hood hinges up.... i did that for a while... it's like a right of passage. nice truck!Name:  downsized_0309091914.jpg

I know this is not a 67-72 but I thought I would show off a long bed and also show what a 64 LWB looks like. Sorry if I interupted this board.
