Do you have the Chilton Manual for the truck? That should be high on your list!

You didn't mention what type of tran it has, there are several differences in capacities.. ford, warner, new process, dana..

Welcome Jmfb

When you have some time go over to E-bay they is a guy over
there selling COMPLETE manuals for like $30.00 on C/D's

I just print up the page I'm interested in and hang it from the
bench with a magnet, it's great to also enlarge it for my old eyes.

Again Welcome !

1968/72 F100/350: There were two different types of A/C.

Where is the glove box...as original in the dash (dealer installed A/C)?

Or mounted in the A/C's bezel (factory installed integral A/C)?

What engine does this 1971 F100 Camper Special have?
