Re: 1972 F350 crewcab 4x2
Looks really good. What trans are you planning on running. If you want to run a C6 or manual, I hope that computer is from a manual trans truck. If it is from a truck with an auto trans, then you will have to run an E4OD. The computer will expect a trans signal in order to run right. Of course if the 460 and computer are from a manual trans truck it won't care what transmission is there.
Cool project. Are you planning on hopping up the 460? Just remember you have a speed density computer there and it has trouble with some performance parts.

Neat! I'd like to see where this is going. In some far off pipe dream I have I think it would be cool to find a newer fi 460 and trans to install in my crew. For now I'm just looking for a deal on a holley projection unit to install on my 360.

Finally got the 72 in the garage to start messing with... working on getting the D70 out and putting the ford 10.25 in. Cutting perches off the D70 to weld on the ford 10.25. Will have detroit truetrac,4:56 gears, TSM disk brake conversion and long pinion with new 1410 yolk.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

Re: 1972 F350 crewcab 4x2
I mainly want the bed as mine has a wavey floor and the bed sides seem to be tweeked (gap one side not other and tailgate issue closing) then I have holes in my front doors someone hacked for speakers.. I think there were stock but they enlarged them ... I also have rusted up cab corners so this might have good ones also... So seems to be a perfect match to my needs. Will post things for sale for sure looks like a set of western junior mirrors also.

Re: 1972 F350 crewcab 4x4
The front crossmember had a dent in the back so got that fixed and temp installed but doesnt line up so will take the truck to the frame shop and have them fix it so it fits right in.
Now got all the crossmembers off and brackets...just the front of the 4x4 frame left to cut off the engine crossmember... still debating though if I should use the 4x4 one or keep the 2wd one on....
