post title says September but last entry says August???

Please clarify!

Nice find!!! You mention its an interesting story about how you found it - so tell us the story!!!

It appears you are showing pics of two different trucks - is that correct?? Which truck are you wanting to sell and where are you located?

I'm curious as to how much drop (with 2" drop spindles) you can get from the Dakota IFS setup?? Any/all comments welcome and pics would be great too!!

Thanks

Not sure what part you are interested in or maybe all of it. I contacted him to see if I could buy the fenders seperately but he won't split it up that far - either cab and front clip or complete. I asked for pics to verify condition figuring I might find someone on here interested in the cab but ha...

Can you post some pics of the chassis tech lowering beams??

Did they widen the front track width at all?

Can you list all the specifics?? I think I remember that its the Dakota CM from IC and you also Z'd the frame - but how much drop is from the 'Z'. And is it dropped spindles? Is the engine in when those pics were taken? What did you do to lower the rear and how much? I realize all this info is proba...

I don't mean to 'cut in' on you porter......

but if that doesn't work out for you, I'm looking for a passenger side uni door (or possibly both).

I'm just curious - did you trial-fit the cab over that transmission?? Are there any clearance issues??

Also, just curious about availability/pricing of that transmission and a rebuild for one. You mention it took awhile to find a suitable trans - what were the issues?

Thanks!

Thanks guys!!! 62 UNI - I had seen yours in the gallery but ... Shiny's post was the one I was thinking of - but obviously my memory doesn't serve me very well today!!! The whit one had the widewhites and the blue (ish) one wasn't a uni... and it certainly is more green than blue!!! Oh well - Thanks...

I thought I saw a post with several pics of some lowered uni shortbeds this past week or so but I can't find it now. They were pics that are not in the gallery. I think one was blue(ish) and had white walls........ Cany anyone direct me to them?? I suppose it may have been a different site but I jus...

I guess I just haven't ever paid that much attention to the longbed uni's before to realize the proportions were like that. I did get confirmation from the owner that it is a long bed..........

Here's why I'm asking: m The ad doesn't say its a shortbed and maybe its just an illusion because of the angle of the pictures, but it sure looks like there is more bedside behind the rear wheel than in front of it........... I've already inquired with the owner but just thought I'd ask here if that...

Did Ford make a shortbed F250 unibody in 1962??

Trukfarmer - so what is #2 - Oh I get it - Jaquar or Aerostar are 1 so the other is 2.......... Regarding the Dakota CM setup, do your research ahead of time. I'm certainly not discounting Steve's crossmember - it looks like a very nice crossmember. But, based on my conversations with him (email) it...

Yes, 2 wheel drive is correct. I should have clarified that up front.

Thanks,

Can a couple of you help me out by checking the height of their stock frame as close to the front wheel centerline as possible? I measured the height of the top of the frame directly in front of the front crossmember (the one under the engine) on my '65 at about 20.5 inches and would like to compare...
