I would say so, since there's no cab step, no battery cover access plate.
See pic in post 11 for correct configuration.
If this
is an F250, will have 8 lug wheels on a 6.50" bolt circle.

Hmmm...
F10 = F100 2WD
J = 240 1V I-6.
K = Kansas City MO Assembly Plant.
650746 = 1965, assembled February 1965.
Compare this VIN on the Warranty Plate with the VIN on the registration/title to see if they match.
People replaced damaged left doors with used doors. 99.9% of the time...they failed to install the original Warranty Plates on the replaced doors.
Not only is this Styleside bed incorrect for this cab, but it's mounted incorrectly.
IMO, this is a Frankenstein Monster, with parts swapped from gawd only knows what.

It has a Dana 24 T case, 60 rear axle and maybe 44 front axle? It also has a battery box under the passenger side of the cab. Ill try and get some pics up if I can, but any help on the year of the frame would be appreciated. Thanks

The cab isn't a factory 4x4 cab it's been swapped at some point. And not positive but I think you have a f100 cab from the vin?

F26 = F250 4WD
D = 352 2V
K = Kansas City MO Assembly Plant.
716210 = 1965, assembled July 1965.
So, what makes you think this is a 1966...is it registered as such? The grille is from a 1966.
