1997

I'm sure it's me and I'm looking right at it but where is the forums for 1997 HD F250's. I see 1999 and up also 1996 & down but see nothing for 1997 & 1998. I need to be told where to go...be nice!

Welcome
Subscribe to both the OBS forum (87-96) and this one. I believe other than cosmetics your truck is mechanically the same as a 96. And then the engine forum of your choice

Thanks that's what I've been doing. Seems odd not to have those two years included. I'm not that smart to know the trucks are the same.? I guess I am now!

there was technically not a 1998 HD Ford. Ford carried the '97 into '98 and then released the '99 SD early. Ford only added the HD label in '97 because they introduced the F250 LD with the F150 redesign(which is basically an F150 with the 7700 GVWR package)and needed a way for people to know the difference. Just use the pre Super duty forum for your 1997 HD.
