NAPA parts guy needs to know the duty (GVWR) rating of the truck to get me the right brake master/Booster/Front Calipers.

VIN: 2FTHF25Y8DCA58173

2FT = Ford Motor Co. of Canada Ltd. .. Ford Truck .. Complete Vehicle.

H = Class G .. Hydraulic Brakes .. 8,001-8,500 lbs. GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating).

F25 = F250 2WD Pickup.

Y = 4.9L (300) I-6.

8 = Check digit, FoMoCo use only.

D = 1983.

C = Oakville Ontario Canada Truck Assembly Plant.

A58173 = 1983 Numerical Sequence of Assembly.

Note: When 8D is typed together, you get that smilie face unless you disable smilies in text (as I did).
