Just wondering if anyone has put a 2003 - 2007 crown vic front suspension in a 1964 f100, ans if so how does it work.


thanks; dave

I did the swap. It's really straight forward and cheaper than other front ends. BUT if you want to lower the truck, then you are going to run into choices you are going to have to make.

1. The track is wider than stock, so your tires will rub. So you will have to cut and weld the fenders like I did.

2. If you cut the springs (like I did) you will have rock hard ride!!! Very little travel. I have decided to save up for Coil-over shocks from RideTech to give me more travel and smooth out the ride.

That's what I know - here's a pic.
