Here's a better option.
78 F250 4x4 1978 ford f250 crew cab 4x4 short bed
However, 78/79 are square headlights right? What year is this front end?
Too bad it's a 78 and has to get a smog check (in CA).

It has a outer grill shell/1 piece insert for a 78/79. But the round headlights (from what I read on here) make it a 78.

Frame Swap Question?
I have a 74.5 F250 Crew short bed 2wd and wanted to make it a 4x4. Some one told me it might be easier to just swap out the frame of one that already is a 4x4 then to try and convert it to a 4x4.
My question is what other years and cab styles had the 155 inch wheel base that the body could drop onto?
Thanks for any help.

crew shortbed is 150" wb not 155". I missed that part sorry. A sclb frame will work. Youd have to move the rearend up 5" or shorten the frame right behind the cab. I used a sclb frame and just cut my bed to fit.
