If you need parts, obsolete or not, I can look up the numbers, then search for them on two online websites to see if anyone has them. Then will post the part numbers, sources that have them.

If the parts are still available, I will list the MSRP and the FTE member discount price offered by sponsor PARTSGUYED.COM (Ed Olson, parts manager of Horizon Ford in Seattle WA).

I've been doing this jazz on FTE since 11/04/2006. And, btw: One of the parts locator sites is only accessible to FoMoCo Dealers.

Could you decode this for me trying to find out some information on my 1981 thanks

Welcome to FTE!

Numberdummy has not been on the site since early December. He may be coming back, but this is a volunteer/hobby gig for him and everyone else contributing here.

I have removed the most recent unanswered posts and placed them in Large Truck.

The posts in this thread contain tons of information, including attachments or links to Ford parts and other manuals. You can use the search function to mine this forum for info.

This will be kept as a Sticky at the top for the time being. Hopefully it will be restored to a working thread soon.


Thanks for your support!

Thread restored. Thank you all again!

Numberdummy has not been on the site since mid December.

Sometimes other members can decode all or part of your posted information.

Thanks!
