E8: E = Medium Red & Dark Red Vinyl (F600) / 8 = 81B Custom Cab.

 

I recently got a rear axle from what I think is a 94' F250 (junkyard was just trying to off the part on me than help me actually get to know info about it.)

I found the tag on the axle and it reads:
SS124G
55 10 2 4G29

The best I could find through Google was that it was made July 29, 1994. 10.25 with 3.55 gears. Right?

Welcome to FTE

While there's no way to know today, because FoMoCo THREW AWAY all the records for these trucks, I suspect that after it left the assembly line, was shipped to an outside company to be converted to 4WD.

Marmon-Herrington, of Indianapolis IN was the most popular for doing 4WD conversions.

 

Thank you NumberDummy, your help is completely appreciated.

 

I'm needing to find some where that I can order new fenders and doors and other parts for for my 1957 Big Job 700. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you in advance for any help.

 

Both the fenders and doors have been obsolete for over 40 years. No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

There's a long time truck dismantlers yard here in LA LA Land that has a pair of new "big truck" fenders. I think they're for F700/1100's, but are badly surface rusted.

COTB-16005-C Right & COTB-16006-C Left .. Front Fenders / Obsolete

1957/60 F700/1100.

B7C-8120124-A Right & B7C-8120125-A Left .. Front Doors / Obsolete

1957/60 F100/1100.

 

Thank you for the help, Im just getting started restoring this beast and need doors and fenders. To give you an idea how tall this truck is I am 6'2" If anyone knows of two front doors in good condition that I can purchase please let me know.

 

Hi Bill we've spoken before.

I'm trying to find the Ford P/N for the Air Cleaner Temperature Sensor for a '76 E-150 351W C-6 (California sold). The one I have is paint marked blue-red-blue and was made for Echliin. But I'm not convinced this is the correct version -- I'm finding too many crosses to other makes.

Regards,
Tom

 

Greetings ND!

I have a 1986 F-250. Here's the VIN: 1FTHX25L9GKA21XXX.

I hear that you have an extensive microfische collection. I am wondering if my truck came with a rubber flap beneath the radiator. I am told that some Ford trucks had a Flap, or deflector that prevented low pressure from building up behind the radiator thus disturbing the airflow through the radiator. I have been told that if I am missing this piece, that my truck will run hot at road speeds. So, I'm wondering if mine is missing, or never had one.

My truck also has a "load supporting valve", in the rear brake system. Where would I find an adjustment procedure for this valve?

Thank You in advance for any information that you can provide.

R, Steve

 

The fuse to my brake lights keeps blowing, I disconnected a plug next to the brake fluid reservoir and it stopped blowing the fuse. What is that plug for and why is it blowing the brake fuse?

 

Hey numbers hope your still responding to these post You are a big help to all of us
I have a 75 600 with 330 hd I need the fuse panel on passenger wall wondering where to get one at thanks for your time

 

D0ZZ-9E607-B = E/F100/350 applications at right upper, Passenger Car/Bronco applications at left lower.

 

Thanks very much once again.

Best regards,

Tom

 

Kind of a random request but do you have any idea what kind of stereo would fit in a 1983 Ford C8000?
