I'm planning on making a good solid truck out of my 85 and 87 F250s. I know of most that needs done but I'm curious if there are things I should do that I haven't thought of. Thanks!

I'm sure of it. Please elaborate on the trucks, what engine/trans/axles? Cab/box configurations? What have you thought of?

Both are standard can trucks, the 85 has a 460 and a C6, and the 87 has a 351W with a C6. The 87 has a junk frame and is light duty so I'm putting the cab and front end on the chassis of the other truck because it's very solid(cab of the 85 has a huge hole in the floor). I also haven't decided if I want to keep the 460 in it or the 351.
