PSD Ratings and model years?

Guys,

I am thinking of retiring my tired old '76 F-250 4x4 and buying a '95 to ??? F-350 4x4 PSD regular cab. The truck will be used predominantly to plow myself out with. I like the older body style almost as much as the super-duties, but mostly they are more affordable.

* What was the last year of the older body-style 98?

* What were the HP & torgue ratings?

* Has anyone had any experience with the shackle reversal kit and who manufactuers them?

Thank you for your help!

Paul K.

I have Heard that the shackle Reversal kit is a great thing as it smooths the leaf spring ride. I believe the mfg. is Off Road Unlimited.

Guys,

Thank you very much for your help!

This gives me 3 model years to target 95, 96 & 97.

The 225 hp. & 450 ft/lbs of torgue with an automatic is more than enough for my purposes of pushing some snow and general use.

Hope Springs Hauler - That shackle kit hopefully has to improve the ride!


Thanks Again!
