yeah it needs a little lift the nice part though is that the family member i bought it from was the orginal onwer and its not bad for $1000 its a good truck and the owner had the truck at a ford shop that went through and replaced tie-rod ends and other stuff like, also they added one more leaf spring on each side to keep it from sagging and this truck is/was the belt breaking F250

How come I can't ever find any deals like this?? That truck would sell for at least $3500 here in Ky. I'll give you your money back for it right now! LOL

Nice. Good deal. Let us know if you find out what is causing the belts to break.

Not on a 1990 unless someone swapped all the pulleys and converted it.

I thought it was a option from 87-91 and they made it standard in 92? Maybe I heard wrong.

Serp. belts came out in 1992.

Early '92 models (built in 1991 as OBS 92 model will still have V-belts.)

Well, considering it has a 2ft stick coming from the floor and 3 pedals, I doubt its a auto.
