If you post a picture of truck front and interior I can tell you what style range ford did carry older parts through later years depending on what was ordered and over stock

Date of manufacture 01-92
Thanks for the help. The way I have been finding parts for it is the numbers Ford wrote on the old ones.

Inside looks like an 80-86 pickup truck except the steering column.
I was wandering if the seats are the same. If no one knows I also have access to an 82 one ton and I am thinking about taking out the seat and see if they fit each other.

modified trans jack used to install 3rd member
On a side note you guys might get a kick out of this'
We had to remove the 3rd member and send it out to a shop that rebuilds these and needed a way to handle it.
This is how machinists and engineers do mechanic work.
Incidentally the thing works great, me and my 13 year old son removed and installed it.

Thanks that saved me a lot of work . now I know what to look for
Also our local Ford dealer has been no help at all and act annoyed when I show up wanting parts for this or any other Ford project my boss comes up with.
And they can't figure out why I won't buy a new truck from them.

69 F600 warranty code

I was wondering if anyone can help me with my warranty code? It is F61BKF13327

I suspect it’s had a new engine installed but figured this was a good place to start.

Thanks for taking the time

What large city do you live near? I own and operate a commercial trucking company, I I know about were u live I can givcaught a good list of places to find parts. The ford dealer will always be useless when it comes to truck 10 years old and commercial trucks.. international, rush, and sterling are good places to start
