Been really, really busy of late, but recently I ran into a Ford problem and I can't seem to solve it.

I was given a pair of these rotor/hub assemblies, NOS in Ford box, supposedly for my 95 F-350. Open the box to find out that they appear to be for a dually, and perhaps a 4WD dually. Ford dealers are of no help in tracking down what these actually belong to as they claim their lookup system does not have the ability to perform a reverse lookup. I don't know what these fit but I am pretty sure it is not a 2WD 97 F350 dually or my 4WD 95 F-350 SRW. The best information I've gotten is that they might be for an 87-92 F-350 or F-Superduty.

The part number on the boxes is F5TZ-1102-B. Does anyone have any idea what these go to?












Thanks for any information.

 

IIRC the date codes,etc..

F5TZ-1102-B

Is for a 1995 Truck....Series, etc...Ican't say for sure..

Contact NumberDummy....he's a whiz at this stuff...

 

I just typed this F5TZ-1102-B part number into the in-house FoMoCo Dealer Parts Locator System, the same system every dealer uses.

Here's what it sez: F7TZ-1102-BB replaced F5TZ-1102-B

Basic applications from FTE sponsor Tousley Ford's website: 1995/97 F350 4WD with DRW. To see all the applications...

tousleyfordparts.com .. click on Home .. then type F7TZ-1102-BB into the box, select Ford .. then click on search.

Notice that below each application it says: Part discontinued (obsolete).

 

Paged him to the thread, maybe he can shed some light on the situation. In the meantime, I have 100lbs and two cubic feet of useless ironmongery here. :P

Edit:
My local Ford dealers have already been less than helpful in the past so this isn't surprising.

So, this should technically fit any 95-97 F350 DRW, even the 2WD?

Also, thank you very much.

 

For that matter, what are the splines on the inside for?

 

There are 20 different 1995/97 applications listed for this puppy (F7TZ-1102-BB) on Tousley Ford's webpage, all are 4WD.

 

Thanks. Okay, so it's for a 4WD then? Well, that's going to be interesting.

I don't suppose you could find out if the rotor bolted to this hub assembly is the same between the 2WD and 4WD variants? My neighbor has the 2WD 97 350 DRW and he's in need of some rotors. If they're the same, that could solve some problems for everyone - because I really don't want to have to ship these things.

 

I pretty much knew the answer to this question...up front...but decided to go thru the PITA rigamarole to verify.

Anything to do with 4WD front driving axles, including hub 'n rotors, wheel studs, seals and etc are listed under the front driving axle parts lists. Not in the front brake parts lists.

There are 100's of these parts lists. The EZ way to get the correct parts list is by crossing the front driving axles ID tag number to the exact parts list.

'Course, you don't have it, so I had to troll thru the myriad application charts to find the parts list.

F7TZ-1102-BB = Hub & rotor only furnished as a one piece assembly / Will the rotor itself work on prior years? Dunno, no applications just for the rotor.

And btw: When I found the parts list for this hub & rotor, guess what it sez?

F7TZ-1102-BB replaces F5TZ-1102-B / So the lazy, uncaring partscluck at your dealer told you another lie!

(sigh) Not only is this info listed on the dealer parts locator (takes seconds to find this out), but in the truck parts catalog as well.

 

Okay, thanks. Will look to see what I can do with them, then. Thanks for the info and the assist.

 

If EVERY FOMoCO dealer rep/parts guy was as knowledgable/caring as Bill...We'd be a LOT better off..

 

the problem with the new breed of parts man is if it ain't in the computer, it can't be had.
i wanted the proper bed bolts. parts BOY said discontinued, can't get them.
the older than dirt parts guy sitting next to him said "you sure"?
he spent 3 minutes in the micro-fisch reader, got part numbers, cross-referenced the old numbers to the computer, walked upstairs and got the 6 bolts and nuts off the shelf.
we went from can't be had to in stock in less than 5 minutes.

the new parts pickers need to spend a little time learning from the "dinosaurs" that are still working

 

I've already repped you Tim....CRAPPPPPP

 

The other problem is...on the newer stuff, all that's required to get ALL the part numbers, is to type the vehicles specific VIN into the system.

So, nothing needs to be looked up in any catalog.

If never 'looked up' before, bed bolts can be a PITA to find in parts catalogs, as they are not listed in the sheet metal section (bed floor pans) where one would assume they would be.

Listed in the frame section and/or body mount section.

 

If that were the case, there wouldn't be so many people like me who take their business to the imports instead. My F-350 is the first domestic vehicle I've had in a while and the only one I currently have out of five.

 

nice find! they are clearly NOS.
put them up in the classified section.they'll fit any D50 or D60 front end to accept the dually style rim for someones full dually convert.
part #'s are good,but that's just gunna tell ya what they came with from ford (f350 4wd cab n chassis) not what they can be used on.
fyi,
don't part with those for anything less than $400. not only are the DRW 4wd hubs new,but so are the rotors.
