Hey ya!

Hello, I've been lurking around for a week or so. Seems like lots of great info to be had.

I just became the proud owner of my fathers 96 F250 7.3l XLT long bed 4X4.

So this year my expanding family (a 19mo girl and wife w/ a boy otw) borrowed my buddies truck to drive up to nor-cal for a visit.

(My tow rig is a 90 Chevy 1/2ton reg cab 5.7 350)

Long story short we headed off to DMV and the local Ford service shop.
Next month I'm taking the train back up to drive her home.

I don't have much specs on her (this is my first diesel) other than this
XLT extended cab 4x4 long bed
7.3l powerstroke
Banks power pack ( I don't know which one. I'll keep you posted)
Dual batteries
Mile Marker hydraulic wench
2.5 Lift w/305's
85k org miles


Thanks for all the good reading.

Russ

Only pix I took I'm using for my avatar.
I post some as soon as I get her home.
She's been garaged 6 years since my folks retired (they retired to the area they went camping at and don't need to tow the 5th wheel anymore) hence the low miles.

Thanks for the welcome

Russ
