Pick this up last night
1989 F250 2wd, not sure what motor it has yet, 302 or 351, I haven't checked. Runs great, and its clean... mostly.

Anyone lifted the front end to make it look more like a 4wd? Any thoughts or recommendations on how to do this?

You didn't raise the hood and look at the motor to check the oil or see what size it is? Wow it must have been a great price!

I might be crazy but that looks like an '86 and below steering wheel.

I opened the hood and checked it out, just didn't pay attention to the engine size, the price was great.

I have since looked and its a 351w. Its an 89 F250 auto 2wd.

I spent some time looking it over last night, its going to need brake lines, has a power steering pump leaking and needs mufflers.

Not bad for almost a free truck.
