Installing Fatman IFS in 68 F100

Post by jhewitt »

Excellent article in Aug 2011 Custom Classic trucks Mag, this install has Rack & Pinion also. I've been told the 65 F100 frame etc is the same or similar, so would this kit fit the 65?

The front end of F-100/250 trucks is the same in dimensions from '65-'79.
That's why we can use them for easy power steering and power disc brake upgrades.
I would daresay the kit will fit just fine.

I put one on my 64 and it worked great, The only issue I had was when I added the aftermarket motormounts for the 302. I had to cut a window in a area that was boxed in as Farman suggest to do, They suggest boxing in the fram like a total of 16". Dropped the front nice.
