New old Ford truck guy in central Texas
This a new one on me...doing one of these forum things. First time for everything I guess.
Every few years I'll end up buying an old Ford to use for various construction jobs around the house. I usually look for an F-150 and also usually spend a good bit of time and effort fixing it up real good before reselling it at the end of my jobs.
I crashed my bicycle and got hurt pretty bad in February so I have given up the bicycling and will probably keep my current '93 F-150 because I need the transportation now. It's a good old truck. Even though it has about 137,000 miles on it, it rides real nice and the engine seems to be in excellent condition.
I found this area while trying to figure out why the front wheels go into negative camber while going in reverse. So, I'll be searching for info on that to start with.
Hasty Banana mates,

Hi Chris and welcome aboard, sorry to hear of your accident.
Your 93 F150 should be a very good mode of transportation with only the few miles on it. There should be lots of miles left in it yet, especially if it`s treated well.
Check out all the info you`ll ever need on it in the 1987 - 1996 F150 And Larger F-Series Trucks forum: 1987 - 1996 F150 And Larger F-Series Trucks - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums
