Thats www.fleet.ford.com which has some good info (I use it all the time), but isn't very detailed for our older trucks.
BTW in the maintinence section you can pull up owners manuals as far back as 1996.

 

I went to the site you mentioned but they did not have any info in their DB on a 2003 and 2004 F250 superduty's!!

If someone can help, I'd appreciate it.

 

kayooh check the VIN you entered or just post your VIN here.

 

Since 11/2006, I've decoded over 800 VIN's for FTE members, so post the puppy, I will decode it for you, but...

Be aware that the VIN has no trans, rear axle, trim, paint codes and etc within it.

These codes and more are listed separately on the Certification Label (1961/80 Warranty Plate/1948/60 Rating Plate). I can decode this jazz, too.

10 digit VIN = 1948/56 / 11 digit VIN = 1957/80 / 17 digit VIN = 1981 thru today.

Example of a 17 digit VIN: 1FTEF15G3FNA12345

1FT = FoMoCo USA complete vehicle.

E = Class E ~ 6,001-7,000 lbs. GVWR

F15 = F150 2WD Pickup.

G = 351W

3 = Check digit, FoMoCo use only.

F = 1985.

N = Norfolk VA Assembly Plant.

A12345 = 1985 Numerical Sequence of Assembly.

The decode info will be from the 1980/89 or 1990/2001 Ford Light Truck Parts Catalogs. I have no VIN info after 2001.

 

1FTNX20P73EC59229

And

1FTNW20P04EA97271


What I am interested in is knowing what options the trucks came out of the factory with (aka the build sheets)


Thanks.

 

There is no VIN decoder that will tell you that.
They will only tell you the information like NumberDummy posted above.
The only way to get that is to email FORD if they still do that and they will mail you a Build Sheet.

 

Straight from the site I linked to in my post (#14) above, guys..........

My post is meant for those members who have access to the Ford DB.

As I am not looking for a VIN decoder SW per se.

Thank you.

 

Thank you very much.

 

Now as I said above, that only goes back so far. Won't do my 98 VIN but will a 2001.

 

Well heres mine. Its a 1994 F150 extended cab with a 300 6.

1FTEX15Y6RKA52773

 

1FT = FoMoCo USA Complete Vehicle.

E = Class E ~ 6,001-7,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

X15 = F150 2WD Super Cab Pickup.

Y = 4.9L (300) I-6.

6 = Check digit, FoMoCo use only.

R = 1994.

K = Kansas City MO Assembly Plant.

A52773 = 1994 Numerical Sequence of Assembly, the trucks specific serial number.

Info source: 1990/2001 Ford Light Truck Parts Catalog (on microfiche) / General Information Section.

 

I was talking about trucks that are used by the posters in this forum.
The 1987-1996 forum.
For the most part we do not have somebody posting in this forum for information about a 2003.
So I stand by what I said above for this forum:
"There is no VIN decoder that will tell you that.
They will only tell you the information like NumberDummy posted above.
The only way to get that is to email FORD if they still do that and they will mail you a Build Sheet. "

 

I'll agree but since he posted the year model info he was looking for I just figured the neighborly thing to do was to help.

 

Some additional info-

Paint code PL-Tobago Green
(what the heck is a tobago, anyway?)

Interior code C6

Rear axle code S838F conventional 8.8 ring gear

Emissions calibration code 352JR10

Oh, and it was built on 11/11/93
