maybe it was said above and I missed it, but I think what you really need are the wide front fenders from the larger trucks like those below, or google “1966 F600 grain truck”. They can be a challenge to find, but I’ve run across 3 pairs at different times, but of course you always run across stuff when you’re not looking!
At a glance that's a good idea, but as ND indicated, the fenders off of a F500/F750 will not bolt up to a F350 without major chopping........

i must be missing something...where did ND say they need major chopping? They bolt on the same as stock f-100 to f-350 fenders...then you just leave off the the rear extensions that go down to the running boards. Simple bolt on, no fab required. If you look closely at the pics of the grain truck I think you’ll see it’s bolted to the same cab with the same grill, etc as the smaller trucks.

Correct, ND didn't say they would need major chopping/modifications, but he did provide the fender part numbers, - C2TZ-16005-B Right & C2TZ-16006-B Left .. Front Fenders - and that they were for - 1961/66 F500/750 & B500/750 School Bus - which does not include the F350, so I deduced that to indicate / say they were not available on F350 F-series trucks, hence, I would be inclined to think they would not bolt right up without some modifications.
Yes, I see the similarities in the cab, grill, hood, doors - but that does not mean the different style fenders would bolt on without any modifications. BUT, if they do bolt up without too much work, that would be GREAT for 'good-ride's' truck and I suspect would take care of his front tire clearance issues!

Bill, being an old Ford parts guy, only posts what that wide wheel open fender came on NOT what it will fit other wise.
So you cant always go by when Bill posts that it will not fit something else. Only way to know is if someone has given it a try.
What is nice when Bill does his posts is you know what other years & models that part came on and that has helped many.
Thank you Bill

C3TZ-3590-M .. Pitman Arm / Marked: C3TA-3590-U / Obsolete
1963 F250 4WD & F350 from serial number 380,001 / 1964/66 F250 4WD & F350.
No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any, none on ebay.
Do you know if any other pitman arm with the same spline count that I could use? We need to install a heim joint to space the arm to match the new steering position.
Something similar to this:
The other option is to machine something up to weld onto the existing arm
