I would say so, since there's no cab step, no battery cover access plate.

See pic in post 11 for correct configuration.

If this is an F250, will have 8 lug wheels on a 6.50" bolt circle.

Hmmm...

F10 = F100 2WD

J = 240 1V I-6.

K = Kansas City MO Assembly Plant.

650746 = 1965, assembled February 1965.

Compare this VIN on the Warranty Plate with the VIN on the registration/title to see if they match.

People replaced damaged left doors with used doors. 99.9% of the time...they failed to install the original Warranty Plates on the replaced doors.

Not only is this Styleside bed incorrect for this cab, but it's mounted incorrectly.

IMO, this is a Frankenstein Monster, with parts swapped from gawd only knows what.

It has a Dana 24 T case, 60 rear axle and maybe 44 front axle? It also has a battery box under the passenger side of the cab. Ill try and get some pics up if I can, but any help on the year of the frame would be appreciated. Thanks

The cab isn't a factory 4x4 cab it's been swapped at some point. And not positive but I think you have a f100 cab from the vin?

F26 = F250 4WD

D = 352 2V

K = Kansas City MO Assembly Plant.

716210 = 1965, assembled July 1965.

So, what makes you think this is a 1966...is it registered as such? The grille is from a 1966.
