RE: suspension swap |

I agree with Richard on this. Having owned F100's most of my life, I know from experience what towing too much with a half ton can do. Upgrading the springs alone, you can add extra weight IN the bed, and tongue weight for the trailer. But, without the better axle, driveline, cooling system, etc, you're asking for trouble if you exceed that weight limit by much.
After two bent frames, one cracked frame, and one stretched frame, I gave up trying to upgrade the F100, and went to an F250 Camper Special package.
Granted, when I bought it, it needed alot of work, particularly on the suspension. But when everything was fixed, it worked like a charm, pulling a 40ft fifth wheel with ease. |
