Ford 4x4 parts...

[mk11]

In the midst of foraging for parts to start a 4x4 conversion on a recently released pickup model I decided I'd lay some out to maybe help others if they're thinking of a similar project... 

On the left in white are the parts supplied in the AMT '78 4x4. The truck is supposed to be an F350 but this is actually an F100/F150 set-up, basically correct for '67-'79 Ford half-tons. For contrast, I also set out the tan front 4x4 parts from the AMT '78 Bronco. Both sets are usable for an F100/F150, with just a little difference in detail. It's possible that there may be a more accurate D44 out there somewhere as well. On the right are the two-wheel drive rear springs from the F350 kit. If you're wanting to build an F250/350 4x4, these may be usable for the heavier front axle set-up required, or you can scoop the danas from another 4x4, like the reissued ramcharger.
