Hello all,
I am looking to upgrade the front suspension on "Rusty" my 54' F100. The previous owner upgraded it to a Mustang II suspension so that's where my base is. I am wondering if there is actually any benefit to upgrading to tubular uppers and lowers? I recently installed a 4-link from Full Tilt in the rear with Viking Coilovers so I would be willing to go coilover in the front. Looking to drop it a little and have some flexibility in how much. Thanks in advanced for all the input.

Assuming you have stamped steel control arms swapping to tubulars would lower your unsprung weight a small amount, not sure if you would notice anything in ride quality. I think they would look nicer but might not be visible anyways?

Truck looks nice, what engine are you running?

 

Thanks! Currently running a 302 with AOD transmission. Fun truck. Was thinking the difference might be minimal. Don't plan on it being visible so I think it may be cheaper/just as good with stock replacement stuff.

Thanks!
Kris
