I got the same rims for my ‘87 d100. I seen your video how have the spacers been holding up? I can’t find hub centric spacers for mine so I’m going with the spacers you got just going 1 1/2

Now that was cool and yes we do what we need to do it's fine that way you're not going to be racing with it 👍👍👍👍👍😊

It’s only happening to you cause all your information is all wrong….

If you just pop the studs out and mill a 1/6 off of the hub with a brake lathe, you can fit most any wheels you want on this truck. I will be posting videos soon.

Same problem I have right now. Thanks for sharing. Helps a bunch.

Can't you just change the rotors? Try aftermarket rotors. Surely Autozone or O'Rielys would let you try before you buy.

I just bought a 84 ' Dodge Ram D150. Went to Discount tires and their system says it takes 5x5 bolt pattern. The computer system is wrong. The 84' model bolt pattern is 5x114.3 I hope that helps.

Good video I just finished 5.7l swapping and wanting to change wheels do u have the info on what adapters you used I hate buying the wrong parts and your way clearly works lol

Thanks for the good information, I’m looking at purchasing a 89 D150 for a Mopar pickup project later this week. I think it’s going to fit nicely with my 71 Duster summer cruiser. Mopar or Nocar!

I ran into a similar problem with hub diameter trying to mount 16" Dodge wheels onto my mid 80s F150. Aluminum wheels are easy to machine. I've done it at home with a straight cut router bit. Steel wheels aren't so easy. A machine shop can do it with a boring bit, but it wouldn't be cheap. Spacers are the way to go, but another option could be too turn down the hub diameter. The rear axle isn't always a problem. But that doesn't take care of back spacing problems.

I have had lug centric spacers on my 1985 D-250 with 2012 Dodge wheels for 6 years. No issues.

What a good video.

FYI, Dodge did some unusual things with their wheel/tire combo's back in the day . different series trucks (d150, w150 , d250 , w250 ) all had different wheel/tires . Event in the same series there could be differences depending on weight capacity . Example : towing or camper or plow packages . I , however , am not a fan of wheel adapters . In your case it seem doable . Good luck !

fan de tu trabajo saludos

Thank you this was a big help I have been searching high and low and driving myself crazy trying to figure out wheels for my 85 d150 I am building 👍💪🙏

If anyone gives you crap about lug-centric wheels, please make them aware that approximately 100 million factory cars for the last 100 years are made lug-centric......lol. And those front wheels look fine as is. Remember....it's just a Dodge!!! :)

Man, that whole setup looks great. The credenza is awesome too.

I must be 2 of 2... lol!! I'm trying to get a 40x60x12 built, but worried about the current economic climate, plus the price of steel right now....

Thanks Wayne, glad to be back. : )

What's up bud! Can't wait to get home and watch this. Glad to see ya back on here.

Smashed the driver rear pretty bad on my marquis. Thought when I get a new vehicle I’d try to sell it for cheap but after seeing these videos. Definitely gonna have to give it a try

Fantastic job! The body lines are like straight as arrows, they line up great.

“There’s no fucks anymore, this things so stiff...” Sounds like you’ve been having a great time in between shots.

I have a very important question, did you eliminate the entire airbag system?

I have seen your videos, everything is very interesting, I started with my project yesterday, everything is disassembled from 09 crown Victoria, but I do not know if I could with so much wire.

i love it , i want one

Any updates lately?

Good job! Watched all the videos on one evening, looking forward to go back to look for details once i start my project. Thanks for making these videos.

Where did the wheel end up in relation to the dash cluster? Forward? How far? I have long arms. Keep going! Two thumbs up!

I remember from an earlier vid that you measured from fender back to axle center on the truck chassis (like 22 1/2"?). Curious what dimension you ended up with once the cab mounted? Is the axle center farther aft in the fender? How much farther? Thanks. Keep up the great work!

Just wanted to say you made a great video series, and a sweet looking truck! I’m tearing down an 07 Crown Vic right now, and I’m at the wiring point and having some problems. I thinned down the harness and removed the power seat wiring, power windows, mirrors, etc. Now, I plugged the harness back in, and the engine will crank, but not fire, and the check engine light will blink. Computer doesn’t show any codes though.... Just wondering if you removed the Lighting Control Module and the Restraints Control Module from your harness? I don’t know if that has anything to do with it. I’m sure it’s something simple, I probably clipped one too many wires somewhere. Thanks!

So glad I came late enough to bing the whole show in one evening. I have learned a lot! and don't fear the start of my project as much. I am sure I will be coming back to your vid several times.

Hay, leave Nathan alone. It's not his fault that he grew up where they didn't speak English.

Hay everyone, you CAN EASILY use a hole saw without a pilot bit. First get a piece of 3/4 plywood. Drill it out as usual. Mount it above the metal, or wood or whatever, where you want it and the wood creates the guide.

I love your approach, even though my personality is more like Nathans garage. I will try on force me to do it your way.

@3:30 no "good money" for the windshield.

This frame swap is really becoming a thing. Isn't there some smart car electric guy who wants to start a business revamping the wiring harnesses? We send you the harness, then based on your knowledge and experience, you send it back ready for a F100?

Hey Eric...Have enjoyed all your videos to date, on your build....And you've given me ideas on what to plan on,, as well as what I'll need to try and modify for my future build.... I have been planing on doing a Chassis swap as you have done but with a '73-'79 F-100 swb... I know these Truck cabs are deeper from firewall to backwall for more legroom.. and I'm hoping it'll close up the Gap between the cab back and bed front... The only thing I know I'll be doing differently from your design is,, I want my Bed Floor to be flat,, just like from the factory... So going by what you did,, it looks like I'm going to have to raise the whole body higher off the frame at all mounting points... Congrat's on everything thats been going on there....Post more when you can...

Glad to hear that things are going well for you Eric. Also glad to see you posting again. Looking forward to more progress. 6 months will fly by! Keep at it!

Smithy's glass packs are not as obnoxious as the other kind. They have a really deep mellow sound. I have those on my truck and they settle down at highway speeds, but announce your presence when you accelerate briskly. I prefer this sound to flowmasters

Good stuff. Happy for all the positive things you have going on right now. My pleasure to help ya out bud. Now I just have to figure out how to make it until the next vid....lol. That cruise down the road vid will be a great milestone!!

Really Nice!

At first, I thought you'd used that app that I recommended, but I realized you couldn't have known that my name was Wayne.

Erik, check your email bud. I sent ya something :)

like the bumper mounts. i cut the front horns off my old frame and i am going to graft them onto the vic frame.

Awesome, this was a great help to me. This is exactly where I am at with my F100. Wheel position (in the wheel arch) was my big concern, also getting the motor and radiator to fit betwwen the core support and fire wall. Iam putting my 1976 F100 Body onto 2005 Toyota Hilux Chassis. ISH (South Africa).

Thank you again for sharing. I have 1976 F100, rust in exactly the same place, floor pan and bottom of the kick panel. I am from South Africa. My bakkie (pick up) was manufactured in SA. I think this must be design floor. Water some how gets in and the moisture sits under the carpet and causes the rust. How the rest of the truck is pretty solid. ISH

Did you give up

Pervs ... haha!

When are you going to start on the bed ? Great work on the truck really enjoyed the video's keep up the the grrat work
