    89 to 86 swap

    I am going to swap doors but not cab. the cabs are mostly the same from 80 - heavy 97. and before anyone gets excited I said mostly. I will change the cowl to the 86 style. It will retain the 89 dash and all fuel injection. also thought about either a 4 or 5 speed. I like the overdrive idea but...

    Emblem question

    I agree with BKW. the 65 and 66 had emblems about 3/4 up and close to the door. I've had 5 1965/66 F100s and that's the correct placement for it. the fenders were the same from 61-66 with only badge differences I believe. there are a few interchangeable parts but when Ford introduced the twin...

I have an 1989 f350 4x4 460 c6 auto 4.10 locker front and rear. replaced both tanks and pumps and new fuel filter. the problem is this. when I get in it idles very rough (think nasty cammed pulling truck). but it runs circles around...

    brand spanking new!!!

    hello all. just thought I should introduce myself. I have had ford trucks for the last 25 years. I've had at least one of every body style from 1935 to 1997. so far my 86 f250 4x4 is my absolute favorite. if anyone reads this message me I would like to meet people with same interests.
