I would almost bet they have the same suspension that the '70 model F-150's had.

I didn't think that they issued factory 4wd till the late 1960's. It may be all custom.

Are you sure it isn't at least a F-150? By definition the F-100 was a light half ton...

In that time period, it should have leaves all around which should make lifting fairly easy.

Post pictures when you get it, old iron is interesting. :icon_thumby:

Don't think the F-150 came around till '75'. I remember putting 3500 lbs of ag lime in my '73' 4x4 F-100.

My credo

I don't know much about these but if it's original, and is an F100, it definately has a 9" Ford rear and a Dana 44 (if that is what a Spicer 55 is). The transfercase is probably a divorced Dana 24 as I don't think the NP205 was around yet. An F250 would probably have the same front axle, and a Dana 60 rear.
