1993 F150 XL standard cab short bed with Big block 460 on 1978 F150 chassis
Being as it is on a 1978 F150 chassis it has a solid Dana 44 axle in the front with 4.56 gears and a truetrac diff. It has a Ford 9inch axle in the rear with 4.56 gears and a Detroit locker. The axles were completely gone through and all seals replaced when the gears and locker and limited slip were put in. The lift and axles have about 4000 miles on them and it was only taken offroad about 4 times when I got the 1978 chassis from a guy at work.
Both axles were completely gone threw a year before it was put away they have about 4000 miles on them. The lift is a Skyjack 6inch springs front and rear. It then has Fabritech extended radius arms that lifts it another 3 inches and 3inch blocks in the rear to level it so the headlights don’t point skyward. It has 2 C6 transmissions and a NP205 and a NP203 transfer cases. The body is solid it needs the driver side rocker panel replaced. The front fenders have some rust about the size of a half dollar. I have made the front cab mounts and Energy suspension cab mounts and about every bushing is Energy suspension too. It needs a crossmember replaced since the frame was shortened so it would fit under my short bed body. We left it a inch longer than the stock frame so we could do a shackle flip and get rid of the blocks in the rear and improve the pinion angle with out shims. The Big block is out of a early 70’s Lincoln. I also have a set of DOVE-C heads that will raise the compression ratio to around 10.5 – 11.0 depending on how much they ground off the deck of the block and by the time the heads have been milled. The engine is in running order it just need the accessories bolted on and a intake and carb and the Mallory distrib and plug and wires and oiled and primed. The engine has about 5000 miles since it was rebuilt, when it was in my buddies van it did a wicked burnout. I have the drive shafts the front is the right length, but the rear needs shortened. The truck needs the body bolted down and 3inch body blocks put under the bed to make the lines match up .It needs the drivetrain dropped in and it needs a carb, plugs, wires , coil, motor mounts, and shifter. I have a set of exhaust manifolds for it but I was going to use a set of L&L headers.

Call Casey at (260)246-9238

I have about 10,000 in to it. I am asking 4500 for everything
