Saggy Chassis
I probably wont be able to buy it because I have no place to put it and I already have 2 other vehicles just hangin out waiting for something to be done with them. BUT.... The girlfriend spotted my exact dream truck that I want to build/restore for sale on the side of the road.
1979 Ford F-250 Crew-Cab 4X4. It seems to be an AZ truck because there is no undercarriage rust but the bed may need to be replaced. Other then that its what you would expect an original 79 to look like with original almost nonexistent paint and a few bondo spots. $4500 obo <--good price
To the question at hand. Has anyone with a longer chassis ever have a problem with it sagging? I assume that is the problem. The cab and the bed seem to bow in towards each other. Is this something I should stay away from all together or is there a way to get the ole straitness out of it without any cutting and re-wielding if the chassis. I like to stray away from stuff like that.
