if your doing a 4banger to 5.0 swap you should get a tubular anyway. and i also believe that they are different

there the same. when i did the conversion a couple years ago i never changed the k member and it fit and drove fine... if you have the money for a tubular i would get that since you have the engine out any ways so u dont have to change it in the future

ok ,they should be, the only thing diffrent i think is the springs, and they are just looser than 5.0 springs, i know my father-in-law looks for 4 bangers because he loves the idea of no abuse on the subframes like alot of the 5.0 have. im awake now i was thinking cross member on the torque box pan.
