F100 Crown Vic Front End Swap - Step by Step

[@yamahaxs6501]

being a c10 guy, all the Ford guys talk about the Crown Victoria swap, but I've never watched one till now. great content

[@330_garage3]

Thanks! the nice part about the C10 now, is the aftermarket options for it. Parts are becoming available for the F100, but the crownvic is hard to beat for the low cost.

Even when the music is playing it's tolerable choices including the volume. Not to mention it's in the correct places.

We do this relieving in our shop, but not a lot of the crown Vic swaps. This has been one of the best videos I have found on the Internet for a little bit of instruction. Good job man.

Amazing how versatile the Crown Vic platform has become in the hot rod market. From this truck mod to the entire drivetrain sitting under a 1969 General Lee or racing Vics at Freedom Factory race track. Pretty cool to see how creative hotrodders can be which makes this hobby that much more fun and interesting.

A town or family splintered by feuding will fall apart. And if Satan is casting out Satan, he is divided and fighting against himself.

This looks awesome! I wish this would have been around when I built my '72 thirty years ago. One thing I would have done different would have been to weld up the holes in the outside of the original frame rails were the old suspension rivets was. With them open, I would be afraid of water getting in between the frame rail and the BYC box and causing it to rust and creating a failure point. Great work though! I like it.

[@makingsensewithsteve3620]

I did mine with no kit. It was before kits were available. Finished it in a weekend. One thing I fail to understand is why everyone now seem to think the alignment pin is so important to keep. It is for the robot that loads the suspension in the car. Not to mention if you want to alter the wheelbase (I did) using this logic of the original holes in the frame does not work.

@@nealpurdy1202 The kit is from TruckIRS. I used it for my MN12 (Thunderbird) IRS swap. Be careful when shopping for the IRS. They came with 2 different center sections. You want the 8.8. When I did mine there was a bunch of people saying it would leave the rear sitting way lower than the CV front. I did my own homework and decided they were wrong. They indeed were wrong. I took 1/2 coil out of the rear springs to get geometry correct for the IRS and was still roughly 2" higher than the front. In fairness I put 1 1/2" drop springs in the front.

[@pppaybackkk]

About those rear control arm bushings. I know that on the Town Cars (limousines, same Panther platform as the CV) we have in the fleet at my work, they wear out fairly quickly. They do almost nothing until you're braking. I cringed at re-clocking the bearings because of how often I replace them. I would have hoped the kit would have allowed for the mounts to be at the stock angle. I hate having to modify wear parts. The wear comes a lot from drying out and cracking, rather than physical damage. I've never found a polyurethane replacement, otherwise I'd use it.

I have a torch.. I'm just not very handy with it.. I seem to melt holes in the frame and other things I don't need to.

Damn ford ment for that crossmember to stay

[@sergioduran2968]

Did the control arms plate come on the kit that you order Or did you have to order separate. ?

[@330_garage3]

Yes, the steel plate that mounts the rear of the lower control arm to the truck frame, came with the kit.

Would i be able to do this same swap on my 1964 f100? Its factory straight axle and leaf springs. Pretty much a horse carriage suspension lol. Id like to lower my 64 but theres really no options avial unless i swap the front clip like this... Anyone have any suggestions for lowering my 64 ford truck without doing the crown vic front clip swap? Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated

[@steamy1225]

Not bad. So what comes from BYC in the kit? To me it looks like the 2 boxes and 2 rear plates for the rear mount. Anything else? I might do the same on my 83 F100.

Amazing build! Do you guys know if a Lincoln town car front end fits our trucks I have a 66. Want to do a swap thanks
