Installing Crown Vic Suspension on a Dodge Sweptline! Hemi truck build part 1!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2023
- On today's episode of Lambvinskis Garage, we install a Ford Crown Vic Front End on our 1964 Dodge D100! This truck is going to be an awesome hot rod when we're done! While this may not be the best and easiest option for independent front suspension, it's the option we went with! If you have any questions please feel free to leave a comment or send me a message! This did take a LOT of time to do, but will be well worth it in the end! So sit down, strap in, and enjoy the video!

Good old truck
A little late to the party. Back in early 80's we had a guy weld in a '69 Fury front clip to my 57 D100. We took into account sub frame angle to torsion bar anchor points. The Fury sub frame fell right into place outside the D100 frame. We didn't realize how much engine set back was, and had to cut out a large portion of the firewall. Remember, early 80's. what internet, two car garage. People will say I'm a hack, but who can honestly say they have kept their first truck over 40 years. Torsion bar, power steering, even the 8 3/4 diff. was used. and most of the electrical harness.
Awesome vid! Scrap was $238.51
love the sweptlines
I have one the same color that I swapped onto a dakota chassis
many years ago helped a friend was going to do the vic front end but i had a 1975 i think D150 and we used the whole frame and it almost bolted on was very easy swap
just saw your videos I love the sweptline trucks
keep up the good work
you may like a few of my videos custom sweptline builds
That bed is so clean mannnnn
I like the way you explain what you're doing without 45 minutes of yakking and rambling on
My guess is 350 for scrap
I would left the old strait axle on put the hemi in let her rip. 295 on scrap
RESPECT! Although I would prefer lower in the front - that looks really good! NICE WORK!
oh yeah - scrap guess - 135.70
Thank you very much! We didn't want to go too low and keep it more stock ish height.
Great project! I'm gonna guess 342 in scrap! I just scrapped a complete one and got 395 so with what was taken off that's my guess!
Would pay bit more than scrap n pickup. Trade ya crown vics too. Possible bonus ride current fast street pump gas 340SB in Northland. 417cu. 6-speed Manuel Porsche Race trans 70 Chal. R/T Trac-Pac

What is the dimensions and wall thickness of the box tubing you used.
701 for scrap
Do u have parts 2 of your video
Did you put Compress tubing. For front mounting bolts (4)
That mounts from the frame to the cross member? Yes, we used the same tubes that it came with from the crown vic. We chopped that part of the frame out, then cut the tubes out and welded them in our new frame section.
@Lambvinskis Garage thks for your reply I did not see that or I missed it im doing one as we text outcast bottom a arms bracket ! In joyed your videos
Cool project guys! $117.00 in scrap
We've got a winner!! Scrap was $116!! Send me a message on Facebook, Instagram, or email me and I'll get your sticker sent out!
Sweet!! The Lambvinski crew plays on our cell phone screen while eating dinner.
Thanks for the entertainment and motivation to keep juggling our Dodge projects with everything else.
We are in Washington and bet we’ll cross paths to grab that cool sticker and represent proudly.
Keep on rocking guys!

Just curious could you just cut the frame sections from the crown Vic and weld them in ?
You probably could? But they are a pretty big piece, and this just worked out better, I think, haha.
@@LambvinskisGarage The framework your dad did looks very nice 👍
Do you guys have every 60's Dodge pickup ever made?
I've yet to get my hands on a 61, but other than that, we've had every year and a lot of the configurations!
Why not use the crown vic rolling chassis?
I've heard of some people doing that, but he doesn't want it that low, and this wasn't that hard.
Man, that 4.6 really shit the bed didn't it lol.
Yessir it did! Haha
@@LambvinskisGarage How many miles were on that thing when it died? I have a 99 grand marquis with 128k and it still runs and sounds like brand new. I see a lot of people do the crown Vic front end swaps on the older Ford trucks but I think this is the first time I've ever seen it done on a Dodge.
@@MattsRageFitGarage I'm not sure how many miles it had to be honest, the rest of the car was in pretty good shape other than that timing chain failure. Even the bushings and such appeared to be in good shape.
About $73.60
What other frames will interchange with those old Dodges…
Frames? I'm not sure, I know I've seen people put them on 94-02 Dodge chassis, some even just put them on the whole crown vic chassis too.
