I know nothing about them, but it looks like a Volare suspension grafted in:

If you do a search, you should find some info on them. They were pretty popular for a while.

Hey Darol,
Now that you joined - if you hit reply - you will see a paperclip image
up where you choose font sizes. Click on that paperclip & it will take you to
your hard drive to browse for images you want to use. You can click on 4 of them at once then click the upload button to post them.

Good luck over there.

Welcome to FTE!

Here's one way to put pictures in your posts:

Go to Photobucket.com and sign up for a free account. Then create an album for your truck. Upload any pics you want to post on FTE to that album. Have this album open on your computer when you want to post pics on FTE.

While you're making a post on FTE, select the pic you want to post from your Photobucket album. When the large version of the pic is open, right mouse click on it and select "View Image Info". The image info will be highlighted and will look something like this:
http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...ghtsafter1.jpg

Copy that highlighted info (right click / copy).

When you have the spot in your post where you want the pic to be placed, select the "Insert Image" icon at the top of the post (looks like a mountain) and paste (right click / paste) the image info you copied in the highlighted box (just shows "http://" when it opens).

Your pic will be placed in the post.

Hope that helps.

Have you tried NAPA? eBay wouldn't be the first place I'd look. If NAPA doesn't carry them, Kanter Products does.

I love yer truck. The Monkey face 48/50 model is the greatest to me.
Than the Blue and black color is the bomb. I love it. Please never change that on her.



.

I don't care who ya are that truck is a work of art.


Could we see some pictures? Here is how.


But I got ta say becoming a supporter is the fastest and easiest way to post pics right from
your whatever pad/cell thing or home computer.
Few of us look in the users Gallery or album as you can see by your recent visitors.

It seems awkward, but whenever you "insert a picture" to one of these threads, the forum is looking for the picture somewhere on the web (which is always available) rather than from somewhere on your hard drive (which isn't always available).

Here's a tutorial Bob put together: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/67...-pictures.html Bob's link is not working. Can someone in the know tell me why?

How to upload pictures to the FTE Forums. - YouTube. Thanks Sam Rusty_Old_F250. Best we can find is that this video was done by Gundown64
