Bought a 70' F250 out of ND a couple months ago. I've started to do a bit of a mechanical restoration on the truck. I want to turn it into a mechanically sound work/hunting truck. It's quite solid, as the pictures will show, other than some floor board rot.All four corners will be completely...

Hi,Can anybody tell me what the wheel base was on these two trucks?1966 Ford F-100 Single Cab Long Box 1977 Ford F-250 Single Cab Long BoxI've got a great Gen. 4 cab and box that would look great on a 4x4 frame. I've already got a Gen. 6 4x4 so I'd like to mix it up a bit.If anybody has...

Which one of you smart guys knows which transmission would come in a 1979 Ford Econoline 150 with a 351W. This was a camper van. C4 or C6?Thanks,Derek.

Young guy owns it, about my age. Nice to see that there are some people of my generation that still enjoy the old stuff!Makes me want to pull mine out of storage!Derek.

My buddy sent me this video. 94' F150 with a 302. Fair mileage, around 195,000 miles.Now, this came out of nowhere. Truck isn't used for much more than running errands and driving to the country to shoot birds once in a while.Engine is started, shows normal oil pressure, doesn't tick. Rev...

Pulled my race machine Mercury Topaz out of the bush the other day. Been sitting for two years with a window in the oil pan. My buddy took it through a dip in the road way too fast and bottomed the car out, smashing the oil pan. I took the wheel after that, cruising down the road for about half...

Does anybody know which carburetor would be most commonly found on a 4V 390 out of a Ford pickup? Between 73-79 obviously. Not looking for anything too specific.I'm trying to compare factory jet sizes to my current carb to make sure I'm in the ball park.Thank you!Derek.

Doubting anyone that lives anywhere near me will see this, but it's worth a shot! :)Manual transmission, power locks, windows, mirrors, A/C, Alpine deck, and aftermarket sound system. Not an oil burner, 195-203 PSI on all cylinders 35,000 KM ago. Timing belt, clutch, and associated components...

I'm looking for an ignition switch wiring diagram for a 1979 Ford Econoline. My buddy lost the key for it, so we need a temporary solution to get it moving.Thanks,Derek

Turn signals work when the light switch is off (key on), but when I pull the light switch out, both filaments on the LF bulb light up, and it will not blink. Grounds are good, sockets are good, turn signal switch is new, and functions correctly.Also, the turn signal indicator on the dash...

Need a body lift to fit these L&L headers into my 76' f250. If I am paying $700 they better bit.If they don't I hope there is a full length header that will fit!http://www.landlproducts.com/details.aspx?cID=4&BP=1&scID=117&ItemID=1085

Had some time this weekend to pick away at the truck. I've been going through the truck since spring, making sure everything is tight and working the way it should... My plan is to have the truck 100% ready to go, so that once the engine is done, I can drop it in and start driving the thing...

My 76' F-250 needs a set of transfer case mounts. I was hoping to come across a set of rubber mounts, but all I can find is poly from JBG.I think that rubber mounts are going to be more forgiving as far as vibes are concerned. Has anyone had any problems with poly?

Got a call from DC. The NOS turn signal switch I ordered is not going to be available for six months or longer.I'm looking for a lead. Everything I have found is aftermarket.I'm trying to keep Ford parts on this truck!Thanks,Derek.

Howdy!Is there a rubber floor seal that goes along with the cover plate that positions the column through the firewall? All I Have right now is that rubber molded steel plate.76' F250 4x4.Thanks again!Derek.

Hey guys!I need a replacement for part # D3TF-18527-AA.I found one on BGY, but I'm not sure if that is the correct motor, based on the picture.Any help in tracking on down would be great!Thanks,Derek.

When did these trucks go from the 30 spline steering shafts to 36 spline stuff? My truck is 30 spline, but Bronco Graveyard only carries 36 spline steering shafts.I have later model (78-79) column in my highboy.I might have to order the correct joints and shaft separately straight from...

Find a replacement for this joint? 1976 F-250 highboy.It's the one that connects the steering box arm to the hydraulic cylinder. I've never had one of these "hydro assist" or whatever you want to call it systems, so this is all pretty foreign to me...The joint looks to be rebuild-able, but...

Hey!Does anybody have a picture or diagram showing the orientation of the seat belt buckles, and how they are bolted down behind the seat? I've tried a few configurations that don't seem right. It's been too long!76' F250 (Tank behind seat.)Thanks,Derek.

Hey guys,Does anybody know what size the wheel studs were on a 76' F-250 4x4 from the factory? 1/2" or 9/16"?Thanks!!Derek.

Has anybody installed an aftermarket gauge in place of where the original vacuum gauge (if equipped) is? My truck did not come with a vacuum gauge, but I'd like to use the spot above the light switch to mount a 2-1/16" oil pressure gauge.If anybody has pictures, that would be great!Derek.

Just for the winter, though. :)Thanks for looking!Derek.

Has anybody recently removed a front inner and outer fender on one of these trucks? It's been so long that I don't remember.I need (want) to pull the inner and outer fender off of the driver side to gain better access to the broken ex. manifold bolts.Can I pull them out without unbolting...

The PO of my 76' F250 4x4 CS replaced the column because the shift linkage in the column was broken.I was told that the column came out of a later 70's truck, with a slightly smaller steering wheel.This column now needs a turn signal switch... I also noticed a small amount of play in the...

Did the 390 ever come in the 4x4 trucks?Vehicle in question is a 76' f250 Highboy. I am waiting on a VIN, but I figured I'd check with you guys first.Thanks,Derek.

I'm looking at a 76' F250 Highboy at the moment...I'm still waiting for good pictures, but the truck has square shaped chrome fuel doors on both bed sides, about 6" back from the front of the bed. I'm told they are dealer installed.Does anybody have information on this?Thanks,Derek.

I'm looking for testing procedures for the main light switch and MFS in my 2000 F-150.Headlights no longer work when turned on. Park, signal, and daytime running lights work fine, but the daytime lights will will turn off when the switch is turned over to the headlight function.The bright...

Are body mount locations different between a 65-66 half ton and a 73-79 3/4 ton chassis?I think a 65-66 body would be fun on a 3/4 4x4 chassis.smilieFordlogo

It's a sad day for me, guys...Lately I have been thinking about the more important things in my life, and feel that I have been called to sell off part of my project in order to to further educate my self in Jesus Christ. I never felt right about starting the project in the first place, but...
