Instead of using coil springs on the front suspension torsion bars are used from the lower control arms to the frame ( my 1995 Ford Explorer 4x4 has torsion bars , my dads 73 Dodge Coronet had torsion bars ) If you look at a lower front suspension that has torsion bars you will see the torsion bars going from the lower control arms rearward

How do you change a Ford F-150 transsmission?

Its a pain. You first have to drop the torsion bars under the truck. Then get a pulley puller and push the torsion bars back up to remove the metal pieces holding the torsion bars in. Remove the puller and take the torsion bars off. You will then need to remove the bracket holding the torsion bars. ONce that is done, you will have enough clearance to drop the tranny. The hard part is getting the torsion bars back on. Come to think of it, I think you can buy a tool from Ford to pull the torsion bars off. It pretty expensive that why I use a pully puller. Not all F-150s have torsion bars. Buy a Chilton Repair Manual for your correct year. It'll tell you everything step by step.
