Here's my 1993 F350 XLT with the 460 and e4od. I get around 12 Mpg highway.

 

That's pretty good mileage for a 460/E4OD. What axle ratio do you have? (I get 10-11 highway with my 460/E4OD/4.10 gears)

 

I am the second owner of the truck so I am not totally sure of the axle ratio. Do you know how I can find this information on my truck?

 

Axle code on the door jamb. Then Google, or I believe there is a list on here somewhere as well.

 

I've named this one "The Ugly Truckling" due to all the rust. I paid $600 for her, put on a new starter, and it runs and drives.

F-250 5.8 4wd manual transmission. I'm 90% sure it's a 1992. The PO told me it was a 1991, but the front end is the newer style, and a 1992 takes a different starter than a 1991. Mine takes the '92 starter. The label on the door jamb lists a build date of October 1991, so I'm guessing it was an early 1992 model.

It's rusty as crap, and the front differential looks to be in bad shape, but it runs and drives. I mainly bought it because I wanted the engine out of it, but it runs good enough I'm gonna drive it like it is for a while before cutting it up for parts.

The list of things than need fixing is a mile long. Front fuel tank doesn't work, no AC, interior door handles don't work, passenger window doesn't work, the tailgate fell off....

Most of that I'm not even going to bother fixing. As long as it runs, drives, and occasionally tows or hauls something, I'm ok with it. After all, I only paid $600 for her. I wasn't expecting a perfect vehicle to start with.

Heres the farm truck I just rescued





When I level it should I keep the 285s or throw on some 315s?

 

Here is mine when I bought it - had spent 20 years in the sun and had a little rust needing repair:




This is after the cab corners were repaired, with a different set of wheels, replacement bug deflector and I polished the daylights out of it:




And this is as it is now, since I had picked up a surprising amount of stone chips and was faced with either repainting or protecting it. The running boards and fender trim were holding a lot of mud, gravel and winter sand/salt, so decided to remove them. The bumpers were rusting from the inside out, so I replaced them with new parts bedlined all around. I will either replace the cap with a shorter one or have it repainted... have yet to find the right replacement cap.
