another Crown Vic question
 

I'm going to install a 2007 Crown Vic IFS. Can anyone tell me where the front axel centerline is on a 53 F100 ? I'm going to assume it's the rubber bump stop above the axel. What is the centerline on the CV IFS ? How about the measurement from the end of the frame to the first bolt hole for the CV? I've read and reread multiple post about this installation but nobody seems to discuss actual measurements. Any help would be appreciated.

The bump stop is the center line. Most people I've seen move the CV 1 1\4" fwd so the wheel is more proportioned in the wheel well.

I asked the same thing in my build thread for my 51 with little to no answer. I asked because I have my cradle completely taken apart so I had to mock it up and place a hub/control arm setup and eyeball/measure to verify that it looks correct in the well

If your on Facebook there is a page dedicated to 53-56 f100 CV swaps. There is a member on there that even builds kits to install the CV his name is Edward Ritchey he will answer all your questions

I found the Facebook page and it answered all my questions., centerlines, measurements and a ton of pics.

I looked on FB but couldnt find anything, can you post a link to the page?

Just look up 53-56 f100 crown vic suspension swap

awesome! thanks. I count find it yesterday, everything came up as no matches. What is everyone doing for bolts? It looks like they are 9 inches and 3/4 diameter holes. I dont have the stock CV bolts so I need to pick 4 up.
