Hi all. First post here. Recently bought this and all I know about vehicles is how to change oil, tires, and when it's time to call a mechanic. Can someone tell me what I have here and if $1600 was a fair price. Thanks.

 

F150 2WD. Not much else can be known from info and pics.

 

post a pic of the door tag and that will tell us a ton that we can tell you.

Some pics of the motor

 

How many miles are on it, as far as you know?

 

Door tag. Got to run to work so ill check back in later..

 

Either 94948 or 194948. Odometer only has 5 digits, sits hard to tell..

 

It has 3.08 open differential gears. One wheel wonder! LOL

Looks decent, 300 inline 6 is super reliable and easy to work on. Automatic or manual trans?

 

Trans code T I believe is T-18 but don't quote me on that.

Manual. 5 speed. What do you mean about the gears and T-18 Trav?

 

I must be wrong then because T18 is a 4speed.


The gears are in the rear end. Not sure how to explain everything.

Transmission Code "F" should be a T-18 4 speed manual transmission.

 

Then if it is a 5 speed somebody must have swapped a M5OD (only gain is Overdrive but not the strongest transmission from my understanding) or a ZF5 (which in my opinion is the best stick shift for these year trucks).


More then likely the M5OD to get away cheap or gain overdrive.

I did some googling for the difference between open diff and limited slip. My basic understanding is "it ain't no racetruck" lol. Which is fine, i just needed something to get back and forth to work and maybe take a pretty redneck girl camping in from time to time. Thanks for all the replies fellas, its been helpful!
