Probably going to be the ugliest in this pic thread but why not.

1989 F350 2wd ZF5 XLT Lariat. Currently stock. Since rear end is going to need rebuilt I have a dually rear end laying around going to fix and drop under it. May consider 4x4 swap since I have a D50 TTB laying around and the transmission and tcase for a 460 T18. Was going to restore but since we have so many vehicle probably will just become a hauler truck still deciding. Picked the truck up for $100 with a shot bed. Replaced the bed with a parts truck flat bed and that's how it sit currently.

It is certainly helpful to have the diagram, thanks. I'm going to work on it this evening and I'll report in my build thread.

Well, here's my little crew cab. 1995 F150 Centurion conversion, 351, E4OD, 4wd. XLT interior, no fancy add-ons by Centurion.

Last summer on the beach:



Most recent photo, taken about 2 weeks ago. Rust is taking its toll on the bed, fenders and radiator support. This year the bodywork will be done, along with a couple of minor mechanical issues.



Mods are as follows:

-Sixlitre tune up
-Summit Racing shorty headers, stock y-pipe, 3" catback with unknown muffler
-Glowshift trans temp gauge
-38 Gallon fuel tank
-CC844 Moog front springs
-17x8 American Racing AR-172 wheels, 285/70R17 Michelin AT2 tires to be installed soon
-JVC Bluetooth head unit, Rockford Fostgate speakers in the doors and C pillar, Sound Ordnance B-8PTD powered subwoofer under rear seat

Hey bob my 95 Ranger is the same color on top with a tan bottom. I like the color.
Redneck you stole that truck.
This isn't just a pic thread its pics problems related to the crew cabs.

Speaking of which Im in talks with an injection and blow molding company regarding manufacturing the drivers door power window switch bezel. the problem im running into is the quantity that has to be made and the price to be able to do the project.
Anybody else need one. I was also thinking about having another guy give me some info about making them out of aluminum.

That pic I posted was the good side. LOL A few months back my brother hooked the chain up wrong and I ripped the front bumper clear off. LOL Interior though is in perfect shape minus the ripped front seat and door panel on drivers side blue.

First off personally on our 89 F350 if I do keep it going I will be making it full manual windows. I don't really care for autos so can't help you with that.

I know I stole the truck for $100. I bought it being told the transmission was bad fired it up a few mins (pouring gas into the intake while doing it) and put into gear and it took off no problems. LOL

IF you insist on knowing the problems with our 89 here it goes:
rear fuel tank has a hole
both fuel pumps are bad (probably one on the rail too)
needs an altenator (I stole it off of here to put on my 88 F150 while she was running.
brakes in the rear are shot I need the whole brake system that's why I will probably put the dually rear end under it plus it has a limited slip.
shock mount is broken off
inner drivers side fender is broken where the hood spring goes
hood has a hole in it where their was a hood ornament (will put one on when I find one I like cheap)
front bumper is torn off (I probably will build a cheap winch bumper for it)
drivers door panel is blue and for manual window I have another one going to paint both red and turn to full manual windows
wheels are incorrect and are harder then heck to get on and off.
bed needs bolted down
passenger door is beat up.
Drivers door sags when you open it you have to lift it to close it.
drivers rear door has a crappy bondo job done (where the paint is to keep rust down)
has incorrect radiator (I have the correct one)
ignition is on a switch hack job (I almost have this fixed)
no exhaust from cat back (I will be cutting the cat off and dropping a single thrush on it if I fix it up)
tires are bald and belts are about to come through.
needs a good cleaning (currently being used for storage for parts)
needs door locks outside
needs a windshield (I got a brand new one in for free and somebody broke it)
needs both drivers side inner handles.
Has 380K miles on original everything! But engine runs like a top still
LOL


My plan to do is I have 2 front doors that are in good shape off a parts truck that are manual window. I am going to install those and make new mirror mounts for the west coast big mirror style. For the rear door fix it or find another one (that will be hard) and call it good. Get a drivers side fender call that good. I have a rear tank and was going to flush both and get new fuel pumps and alternator. Swap dually rear end under once I locate some dually wheels cheap fix the small problems and drive it. Probably would rattle can the thing gloss black or something like that. LOL I just want the thing to be a hauler truck then later on when I get more money and time and my other trucks are closer to done completely restore the thing with a fuel injected 514 like I had in a 93 F250 I use to have. LOL Probably convert it to 4x4 with D60 SAS and small lift on it leaving it dually. I just haven't decided yet kinda hard to when you have 11 vehicles on the lot all needing something.

Electric Currant Red. Awesome color when it's not faded out like mine! I haven't decided what color it'll be when the bodywork is finished.

Brads trucks are very nice I like the clear lenses on your white and blue truck.
So I have seen a lot of crew cab long beds. Some have the molding behind the rear wheel well and some do not. Neither one of my crew cabs have had them. What's the deal.
