The sedan may be a tad narrow unless you plan on running a deep wheel and a big tire. The E rear has a splined shaft (knock off wheels) and you need a weld on adapter which can be moved in or out a little, the sedan has a standard wheel flange that's fixed. I've seen a few F-100's with jags and they are probably close to the T F's width. If you have a choice get a rear with one piece rotors not the three piece composit ones. Also remember that the calipers use Girling fluid not DOT stuff unless you rebuild them with compatible rubber pieces. Those rears are a real eyesore in the cage, but a thing of beauty out in the open. Good luck. Richie Z | | |
