Back when I was a truck mechanic I serviced a fleet of big Fords, but that ended in 1981 and I've not stayed in touch with Fords since. 80 inches seems a lot more like what I'd expect. Are you committed to a straight axle setup? I have a Chevy P30 that is about 80 inches across the front tire. Its an IFS and I assume could be adapted to a Ford frame similar to the way Chevy pickup IFS can be adapted to an AD Chevy. Just a thought. 1955 1st GMC Suburban \| 1954 GMC 250 trailer puller project \| 1954 GMC 250 Hydra-Matic \| 1954 Chevy 3100 . 1947 Chevy COE \| and more... It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...
