FNG says hi and has a question

Myself and my best buddy from childhood are both restoring F100's, mine is a '56 and his is a '58
I have all the measurements of my truck,but...........

I have been all through the 'net searching for Height,Width,Wheelbase and wheel track information for the 1958 F100
With no luck at all.
In all desperation trying to set up his suspension,does Anyone have any measurements of this truck?

Welcome to the best Ford site around. Someone will be along with those specs in just a bit, I'm sure.

Welcome to the forum...I don't have the specs you need but I believe that when you get them you'll find that they're just about the same as for your 56. Good luck with your projects, having a buddy to work with is great.

My best bud drives a 66 Chevy PU that I have rebuilt from end to end at least once. If I could get him to help me as much as I have done to his truck, mine would already be finished.
Welcome to the site. Someone will be along shortly to answer all questions you have, where is the Col. when someone needs info on the orphan years?

I am hoping that they are similar. It'll be easier to set up the suspensions of both that way, as my coefficient of stupid would be dramatically reduced.
