Would a question----->
1. Would 1967 Ford F100 have a nine inch rear end?
2. Would that bolt up to my F6 frame to help me lower my coe?
3. I then would like to put a straight axle off of a F1 under the front of it.
Will this be possible. I know the steering will be an issue.

1. YES
2. Yes. It will sit slightly lower due to smaller tires. To lower if you must do something about those HD springs.
3. It should fit but will require different u bolts since the front springs are wider. Steering linkage may bolt up.

The F1 axle and its steering components can be used. Fewer front leaves would be necessary to lower it. The steering would need some attention, as the stud ball for the F6 is larger than the F1, ... so if you PM me, I can send you some photos of the setup that actually can work. I'm using an F6 steering box in my F1, and have the pitman arm deal worked out so the F1 setup is compatible with it.
