So im building a 91 f250 ranger with a dana 50ttb and 10.25 with 4.9l in it. ive been waiting all winter to start it ive got my donor frame form a 1989 f250 plow truck with a 4.9 five speed manual everything. is geting bored of my 4.0l i want something bigger and more power. until i can get 7.3 powerstroke powertrain made up i will use the 4.9 for a couple years. im still try to drag the donor truck up a slope to start the tear down of the two trucks but the f250 dose not want to get up the hill lol. so heres my thread

My credo
it is easier to fix and understand than "her"
that thing will be a blast to whoop on.


i know you want the box but i vote to shorten it and fit it up, cut the fenders huge and run 37's....

it will be a tank and hard to bust.

Got the bed on but I don't have the body lift for it yet or axle under it yet. It's a rough placement of bed and where the axle will sit
