Body Swap

Will a 78/79 Bronco body line up to bolt onto a 73/79 F100 2wd shortbed frame?
Thanks

Nope.....2wd/4wd shortbed is a longer wheelbase & different mounting hardware/mounts.

You looking to build a Bronco lowrider or something? Just curious....

Good luck!

Yes and no. I want to build a 2wd version, but I am not into lowriders. I am planning a 521 combo. I already have a 79 F350 and a 78 F100. My F100 is only dropped two inches in the back, while the weight of the 460 set the front at a height I was happy with. I would like to have the extra room of the Bronco, plus I have never seen one before.
