Welcome to the forum. If you are going to get serious about working on your truck, a shop manual would be the way to go, much more info than owner's manual. They are also available in various places. There's a repo available on Ebay BIN $50 plus shipping. Besides, if you get the shop manual you will have many more questions!

Ok by the door tag you have a 1964 truck
F25=F250 2wd
J= 233CID
D= Dallas, TX
564469 = Jul 1964
You might want to verify the VIN thats located on the right frame rail just in front of the cab.

I cannot find any numbers on either frame rail. Only thing that has numbers is the plate on the drivers door. And I figured it was a 61 cause the last thing on that plate says 61. I knew how to read the vin till the assembly plant but didnt know the numbers after the D. So I guess it's a 64 haha. But it has the 4 speed manual transmission if that helps...

The VIN is stamped in on the top surface, you'll need to take a wire brush to it to find it. The 4 Speed Warner transmissions capacity was 8 pints. On the door tag there should be a two digit axle code number, it should be behind the letter F which is the 4 speed transmission code.

Oh ok. Well I'll check and get back to you...I looked up and down the frame rails but didn't see amything. Maybe if I take a brush to it. Haha. Oh and also you said 18 quarts for coolant, that seems a bit much because I think last time I filled the coolant, I think only 2.5 gallons fit...
