CRASH said:Ford Super Duty wheels are 8" on 170mm metric bolt pattern.
They do not fit any other 8 bolt (8 on 6.5") axle.

ECU88XJ said:I was told by a diesel guy that the earlier super duty's (pre 99?) were the 8 on 6.5. is that correct?
CRASH said:The only pre-99 "Super Duty" was the F-450 chassis cab. It only came single cab, 2 wd, dually.

CRASH said:Pre-99's are not SuperDuty's, in the parlance of our times. The new body style after 99 is what is refered to as a Super Duty. It has a different rear axle 10.5 Sterling as opposed to a 10.25 Sterling, the F-250's got a Dana 50 solid front vs. a Dana 50 TTB, and the funky bolt pattern that came with them.

DaveHillier said:I was looking in an old JP magazine I've got here. I foud an XJ running Lambardi radius arms with a Dana 44 front out of a 1971 Bronco. I think this is the route I'm going to take. Is a f150 wider than a Bronco? Thats quite the beast you got there Jake!
Scrappy said:That is FarmerMatts rig. Phil Lambardi did the initial work on those arms. They are basically a stock ford radius arm cut in half and sleeved with square tubing. And a 1" hiem at the end of it. You will have to build a custom crossmember to mount them to, but mostly a bolt in swap. The only problem with the EB 44 is that it is a LP 44. So unless you throw alloy shafts and big brakes, might as well have a HP 30.
