ok so im building a lowrider out of my 95 f150 xlt 2wd. It already needs a new bed so im going to my local U-Pull it junk yard and getting a new dually bed and a dually rear axle. Ive built other custom trucks and cars and I can fabricate so the rear suspension is not going to be a problem. my question is . Is there any way to bolt on a conversion for the front suspension being that i have the twin I beams. Im not looking to haul anything more then chairs for a show and a cooler. all i need to come up with is a way to convert to 8 lug spindles basically .






those are just a few of the projects ive built the ranger was mine the sonoma is a friend brians

I believe that the twin I beam from a 350 will bolt up and use the same spring perches you have. I think that the spindle and bearings are larger for the 250-350 then those on the 150. You could also get the dually front spindles that space the wheel mount out for the proper offset dually rims.

yeah thats the plan. im wondering if i get f150 dream beams if the f350 spindles will mount to the ball joints in the dream beams. ive been searching the net since this post and im getting closer to an answer but i just cant get there lol !

so what ive fount thus far is i would have to get dreambeams for an f250 or f350 superduty. im guessing there is an obvious differance in balljoint size due to the load capacity differences between an f150 and an f350. so my next question is . Dimension wise are the beams the same lenght . so could i simply just bolt the f350 dreambeams undermy f150 chassis as long as i had the f350 spindles rotors and what not. I HOPE YOU CAN FOLLOW that

I think they would bolt up the same, but I'm not sure. Why not just go with control arms? You obviously know what you're doing so you could eliminate the worst part of dropping an F150 by getting rid of the i-beams.

Nice vehicles!
