Well I only got one picture since my camera man sucks!

and here's a picture of the coils I want to use from the 78 bronco. Anyone know what lift they might be? Also will the radius arm brackets work from the 78 to swap into the 77 f-150?

Also will the radius arm brackets work from the 78 to swap into the 77 f-150?

Yes, but they are dropped more than the 77 style, though that is probably why you want to use them.

yeah thats why I won't be making my own radius arms for awhile.. So they will bolt right in? I was told the 77 frame is different then the 78 bronco and it won't work? Also are the axle perches different from the two vehicles? like the width.

I used modified '78 radius arm mount to support my tran crossmember after I moved my stock mounts back for my extended radius arms. They fit fine but they do have 2 additional holes that the '77 frame does not have. The holes could be drilled but I didn't even bother on mine. Here's a pic where you can kinda see the cut '78 mounts bolted in on the far left of the picture-

And you can see it in the lower right corner of this pic -

Do you have any idea how much lift them coils will give me? they measure about 22 inches. They are ten years old so I'm sure they have sagged some.

???

 

[MuddinBronc]

So no one has any idea what lift these coils might be?

 

[BrokeCuzWheelin]

I have no idea, but if I had to guess I would say 4in.:shrug

 

[MuddinBronc]

Would they be the same length then a 4 in from an 88? Cause they are considerably longer then that.

I think those would be 6" lift. I'll measure some stock springs later and let you know.

alright thanks that'd be cool
