You aren't cutting that bumper off before you junk it.

Had this happen with an 89 crown vic once,, body and frame looked spotless, had car ready for wire only show and when my brother crawled under it to bolt down the battery,,, he found the passenger frame rail to be rusted all the way through from behind the crushbox to the crossmember. Ended up using up the whole car to repair other fords and for a donor for an 03. I would keep the whole front stub if its good,, it would be an easy swap into your 98 if you tear the front up after the first one,, that is if its good from the crushboxes forward. Shoot me a pm if you have ?s on the 98, I have built several and there are a couple tricks that are not noticable that will make it much better. You should at least keep the upper a arms off the 92 , they will make your 98 sit about 2 1/2 inches higher when done right.
