F-250 Help ?
Whats up everyone, I have a question i hope someone can answer. What i want to do is i have a 1993 reg cab F-250 2wd 460/5pd and i would like to acquire a F-150 short wheel base frame and was wanting to know if the frames are the same and would my rearend and front suspension bolt up to the new frame. i basically want to move everything except bed over to new frame and create a F-250 Short bed but i do not want to get into heavy fabricating. any knowledge would be appreciated
