I have a 1970 2WD F-250 that I have had since I was 16. For the last two years, it has mostly been sitting in my garage collecting dust. I can't bear to get rid of it, so I would like to modify it a bit into my fishing and hunting rig. These old trucks ride incredibly low, especially the 2WD's, so, one of my questions is...
Will a body lift, bigger tires, and lockers be adequate for mostly hilly terain and a little mud (stress not very deep mud!), or should I be looking at a different setup? Any tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

 

I haven't got a clue with the older trucks but I can direct you to another site that might have more info for you. If you find out and decide to do something with that truck, do post back and let us all hear about it. Good luck. try www.ford-diesel.com they are more into diesels but you are talking about the F250 so maybe they will know something.
