Picked up dis 57 f100 from Rust a month ago. Dropped it a little and put some wheels n rubber on it. Slowly gettin the letterin done as time allows. Here's a pic when I got it And here's how it's lookin after a month. Tried to do a little thread on lowerin it but I didn't take the time to take pics as I went along. Sorry!

All is good, The 60 4wd that replaced it is good, not the same though. glad to see the 57 getting some love. jon
Thanks! 2" axle. 1 1/2" springs and back is just a flipped axle with a c notch. Drives great! Used dropped tie rod ends instead of orig plan of tie rod drops. Not a bit of wobble, bump steer or anything. Just straight down the road. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Looks pretty level, I always thought when you flipped the rear you got around 6" of drop and would have a "rake" affect if you didn't come close to that up front. I'm gathering notes for mine and want to drop it, just nothing crazy. Your's looks spot on man!
She looks great! Loved that truck, sad to see it go, but glad she's on the up and up in her new home. Another one saved and looking sweet!
Hi gents... Anybody have the part numbers for the dropped tie rod ends? I am about to add the tie-rod drops to my F100 but would perfere the "off set" tie rod ends. Thanks g
I wouldnt mess with anything from Speedway. Just get yourself a set of tie rod drops from Sid's Nostalgia Axle
