Ford Pickup

[Scottyy15]

Doing a pickup It has a ford f150 body

In the first photo I have the motor right to the front and have already order a new shaft but the body has to sit high because of motor.

In the 2nd photo the motor is moved back so the body can come lower cause the motor hits the hood but I have to cut the body where the gearbox is so the back can come lower to match the front & the new shaft wont fit so have to bring the axle forward or maybe later on buy new shaft

Just wondering what I should do
Thanks in advance

Thats always been an issue with the f-350 body and these transmissions. The best I can say is just make the body sit higher.

Thanks
Yea put hinge on front at the high level but now have decided to finish off the globe liner which I was going to put this body on so have put it aside for now.
