The 64's were still solid front axle.The twin I-beam did'nt come out until 65.The rear end and springs from a 64 will bolt right into a 60.

Hi guys, I'am of the believe that Ford revised the chassie in the 60 model "effies" and it continued on into 64, books I have mention  this. I know that a lot of after market replacement parts for the front end list in groups of 57-59 and 60-64. From 60 on they are the same frame width which is 34" outside to outside so I would be very supprised if the later diff did not fit.

cheers  Pete

I am not certain but I do not think it is a direct bolt in. 

It has been a while since I read up on this.

The 64 is a twin I beam.  The 60 is a solid axle.  A solid axle frame is narrower than a twin I beam frame.  I think that the spring pads and shock mounts will  be spread farther apart.  Because the bodies of the '61 -'66 trucks were more or less the same, and I believe the non unibody trucks (not step side.  Is that called fleet side?) of '61-'63 used the same bed that the '60 used, I think that the overall width should be fine.  Don't take my word for it though.  Seems logical.

Are you able to get any measurements?
