so no coil sprung f-250 4x4's? i think i read once someone had to use a chevy hub and fit it on the front? what is the difference between an 8 lug d44 land d55? ive been wanting to convert to 4x4 for some time and use the spring/shock towers from a bronco for the dual shocks, and still have the ttb coil sprung not leaf sprung. also i have a anti roll bar from an f350 2wd would i be able to carry this over to a 4x4 conversion?

Don't forget the 97 LD F250 and the "7700"GVR's...150's that have 7 Lugs.

Why not find an f150 with dual shocks and have everything for the swap over? Unless you want the extra lugs, I don't believe that there is a difference in the TTB (correct me if I am wrong). The differences are minimal. Unless you are saying you have the bronco already for parts? or can get it cheap? It is not necesary to use a bronco front end, my 89 has dual front shocks (all four shot at the moment...) All it really does is makes it more expensive when they need replaced, cause you gotta get 4 instead of 2. Not really noticed a good reason to have 4 instead of 2 in the front. Just my .02

Sorry, just noticed you have a f250. Now I understand why you would want the 250 hubs and the extra lugs.
