Um i think we jacked his thread.Ok back to the cross members. THe 1 with the bearing you can probably find in any supercab or crewcab truck and i think some of the 2wd camper specials had them. Mainly with the 4sp tranny. Other than that i dont know.

i thought when he said cab and chassis it meant someone had taken the box off and thats all that was left. didnt know the late 70s f350s were still 34" in back

well, if the frame is 34" all the way back then definitely 73-79 should all be the same crossmembers- except the f150 and f250 from 77 1/2-79
