1971 f500
Hey whats up everyone?
I just got a 1971 f500 from one of my customers. Thing is in great shape little to know body rust/frame is spotless. I own an auto shop in north jersey. I will making this into a truck for myself. 5.9 cummins swapped with an allison transmission.
I have been doing a ton of looking but cant seem to find anything on the f500/f600 as im guessing they were not as popular as the smaller trucks. Im wondering what front axles can you replace in the front so I can have disc brakes? Also is 4x4 conversion possible? Any website or info would be great when I get sometime I will post some pictures of the truck on here.
Thank for any info
