Question Does anybody know?

I have a 78 F250 that has 8,000GVW and twin pistion front calipers with a 3160LBS front GAWR I am going to convert my truck to a dually AND I have everything worked out ecept the front end.....I have a donor 78 DRW f350 that I will use the rear axle and move the spring perches. I want to know if the front calipers and rotor will fit on the spindel of my F250 so I will have the front offset. WILL the front rotors swap over?. The F350 is a 2wd reg cab. So is my 250

I'm not sure about the spindle being the same, but, if they aren't, just unbolt the springs, trailing arms, and I-beams and swap them to your truck. It should be a direct swap.

Just my $.02.
