1972 ford f350 crew cab 2wd to 4wd

Looks good! What hp/purpose (i.e. sled pulling,etc.)are you shooting for?
 
500-550hp just because lol. Mabey some drag racing but i will have to get rid of the dana 70 before i do that. Till then i will live with it unless i run across a dana 80 in my travels.
 
Were did you get the rear disk brake parts.some day when I have to redo my rear brakes I might change over to disk.That is the only thing I haven't changed on my 75ford

i am going to be using a driveline brake on my transfer case but i think you can use eldorodo brake calipers and they have them but they are $$$$$$$$$$
 
well i got some other things done in the last month. the cummins is almost done just have to time the pump and put the lines on. The tranny i am waiting on two thrust washers and it will be finished. All i have to do is re seal the transfercase. and pull the 300 out of the truck.

Looks like a good start for a tilt front clip :poke:That is how mine started out till a buddy told me I needed to tilt mine well 3days later I had all the framing and hindges made but took another 3 day's to get the nerve to cut the fenders.
Keep up the fine work.

Well I got some more stuff done got the trans and transfer case finished. I cut the old crossmember out and got the frame boxed. And had my buddy cut me some motor mounts. So now it just grind the frame smooth and in with the motor.
 
Got more done on the truck frame is finished. And now we have a engine and drivetrain. Now I just need to make crossmembers.

Yea....that is bad ass!

That cast iron case looks good hanging off the back of the transmission. That is the only way to go.

Is it going to have A/C?

Keep up the good work.

Well I got a bunch of stuff done but very little finished. I started on my duel fuel system. Then I started on my trans shifter setup I still need to build shift rods. I got my throttle cable and pedal done. I also got my sterring finished. And last but not least I got my hydroboost in. My plan is to try and get this motor running before the snow flies. Because next spring the whole truck is getting blown apart to finish weld, grind then its paint chrome and powder coat.

It's slow going just getting everything mocked up so I can blow it all apart to finish weld it and paint.
