hey if I remember right (please someone update this old mans memory) using the coil buckets off of a EB moves the springs a couple of inches out on each side which would make mounting the full width axle easier. Atleast I think thats the ones to try and get but I do remeber there was one you could use on the B2/ranger frames that would move the springs out a lot closer to the right width for the F150 axles.

Well, my idea was cause I have no f-150 chassis.
The 79 chassis I got the axles from was bent and I cut and sold for scrap, that includes the same bent and sold for the remains of my 83 bronco.
Also, I would rather brace the ranger chassis and build pipe extensions for the axles before pulling the body off.
Too me that sounds easier, also you won't have to change the mounts on the axles.
