i was wondering if anyone in the state had a parts truck form 92 to 96, perfer 250 and up, i dont care about a motor or tranny really, but is a plus, i just need a good body for parts and frame parts,

 

What kind of frame parts are you looking for firefighter? I got a 89 Bronco that could have something that you could use.

well i need rear frame shock nounts and if they are the same i need the rear shackle frame bracket, also need the front radiator frame mounts and core support, and the shift lever for the t case, as far as i know right now?

i bought this f 250 trubo diesel and where it was driven in the salt etc it rotted real bad where the tires would throw the salt off the road up and they never washed it off, so that is why i had post a parts truck LOL, but what ever you got and you want to sell let me know, i have check with a few junk yards and they want more then i can afford for a parts truck there prices are from 600 up to 1200, depends on the shape of the body. if you want you can give me a call 336 798 0370 after 7 pm

 

The NC State Surplus Sales in Raleigh has trucks come through. You can view them on there web site, i will have to look it up. The DOT Sends it spare trucks to that auction sometimes, but most are kept at the Durham shop on Guess road. Check out the surplus sales by the state. Good luck.

Dave, Do you live in Durham?

John

 

Hey John.
No i live in Goldsboro which is east of Raleigh World by about 63 miles. I do work in Raleigh though.

Dave.

 

Dave, I used to live in Durham not far from Guess Rd and the prison camp that you refered to. I am pretty sure the vehicles that you saw were from that site only. They sell their own vehicles, but through the state surplus system in Raleigh.

I moved to the big city of Creedmoor to get a little further away from the crime scene.

Much mo better.

I have run into the same problem on my Ohio-based F250. I bought brand new frame shackes from a Ford dealer online. They were only about $30 for each rear shackle bracket as I recall. The brackets were about $25.

Oddly enough, I also broke my shifter level on the T-case, and found it nearly impossible to locate one. Ford wanted $350 for a new one! I had to go to a large truck wrecking yard in Asheboro to find one. Most yards pull the transmissions and T-cases and chuck the lever...I got lucky since someone left it in the grass under the truck.

I would plan on replacing your brake lines as well. My rear broke about 2 weeks after I bought the truck, and the fronts look pretty bad as well.

 

oh i got this truck down to a frame and cab only no front clip or anything i am going to treat the frame and paint it and fix any other problems i find i am buying parts up this week and i hope to have her back together in a couple of weekends, it dont take me to long to get her done, i have order new patch panels for the bed new fenders for the front new radiator support, and maybe order new cab corners for the ext cab, and i am ordering new frame brackets and shackles from ford, and new shock mounts from ford and new body frame mounts from ford, i hope they are in soon as well,
