This swap isn't easy by any stretch, but also not impossible. The F250 frame is stronger then either the 2wd or 4wd F100 frames. Here is a link for some info.

Your best bet is to see if someone on here has them. But with the issues trying to get parts from the US to you it may be easier to make them.

Hello Thidaud! Nice to see another European on here! I live in southern Sweden, and I found my ’67 F100 in Missouri about 20 years ago, imported it to Sweden in 2016, and spent a few years fixing it. I have done the opposite of what you are planning, I kept most everything as original and untouched as possible. I’m looking forward to seeing your progress. I have always been impressed with those who could modify so much without fear Keep it up, and good luck. If there’s anything I can help you with, please let me know.

hi, thank you I found this truck not too expensive, complete and never tinkered by a mechanic or a carossier, so it is completely to be restored but at least no fiber, no poorly made welds..
For the moment before having fun with the chassis etc and the suspensions, I redo the layout of the cabin and the skip.
I cut what was dead and a healthy part of the floor to access the spar and now I am waiting to be able to sandblast everything.

I need to find some parts, I found on LMC but if you have a supplier, I am interested

theses parts .  x 2 inside
theses parts . x 2 inside

this big part if not expensive , after i cut only the few dead parts or all

Hello again!
I bought all of my metal- and rubberparts from germany:

https://www.american-classic-parts.com/pick-up-parts/

It made shipping much cheaper than getting it from the US, even though I believe they get their stuff from there. It took a little longer because I think they wait until they have quite a bit to ship overseas, but it didn’t matter in my case, I had plenty of of things to keep me busy. All communication is done in german, so I just used google translate, and that worked great.

Salut, je vais faire venir un van Chevy de Floride pour récupérer des pièces en acier pour la cabine de mon F250 et peut-être un essieu. J'ai trouvé quelques annonces sur Marketplace. Auriez-vous des conseils à me donner ?

J'ai besoin d'un pont avant Dana 44 HD pour convertir mon F250. J'ai un pont arrière Dana 60.
Je peux aussi utiliser un pont avant Dana 60.
Je pense que le mieux serait de trouver un Dana 44 HD ou Dana 60 à ressorts à lames, avec disques de frein et différentiel gauche.

https://www.facebook.com/share/1GRpxZe9SA/ Je pense que c'est le meilleur choix, mais 44 ou 60 ?

Merci beaucoup.
