F150 supercab frame
 

Are the f150 & f250 supercab frames the same?

Yea they are the same

Thanks. I have a spare cab from a super cab that I can use to help Mach up my bronco frame that I want to stretch to put under my f150 super cab shortbed.

Are they both 2WD or 4WD?

Both of the supercabs are 2wd. One is long bed the other is short.

Ah I see and the only difference that I know of between 4x4 models and 2WD are crossmembers

The cross members and the steering box locations are different. I am going through every scenario I can think of on how to convert my 78 f150 sc shortbed 4x2 to a 4x4. Luck for me I have a spare parts to help figure out wich will best. All opinions are welcomed

and 2wd have coils up front, 4wd have leaf. ;)

4wd half tons are coil

79 150 4x4 is the same as the 79 bronco i believe . My bronco had coil springs and 4 shocks in front , steering box on out side of frame rail . I wish i had it back , dumbest thing i ever did was to trade it for a crappy 92 ranger 4x4 .

From what I have learned on here, F150 Supercab 4x4's have leaf springs in the front. Only the regular cab F150 4x4's have the coils. Well, and the Broncos and F100s

I see that now. I appreciate you pointing that out for me. It makes sense. Since the f150 supercabs are on f250 frames. I think I am going to still use the coils since it does give a better ride. This truck will be used in the future to tow my Toy around to go 4 wheeling

yeah, all scab 4x4's are leaf. ;)

If you go with coils then be prepared to either stretch the radius arms,buy a longer set or do so fab work to the frame. Where the radius arm mount should bolt up the frame curves different than a stock 150 4wd. There is nothing where the front bolt holes should be for the mounts.

But the super cab is on a f250 frame. Will that make a difference?
