is this normel??
78 f-250 custom
300 inline 6 cylinder
4-speed
34in rear rail spaceing
3in wide rear springs
Dana 44 4.09 front
Dana 60 4.10 rear
6in+/- spacer between transmission and transfercase
Was told it was highboy but everything ive found measures differently.
Aslo doesnt seem to match normel measurements.

Keep a fire extinguisher handy till things get buttoned up. Carb needs a rebuild. Replace fuel pump and blow out fuel line with compressed air, replace rubber fuel hose, etc. That'll get things squared up.

That is a married transmission and transfer case that came in lowboys. If it is truly a 78 frame it is a lowboy.
Like others mentions, if it has the ram assist steering it is a high boy. If it has a normal modern style power steering pump it is a lowboy.

Looks like a later model pump and there is an integral box. The pulley angle on the pump looks off though.

I second this. Something is not right with the float and needle and seat not stopping fuel from over filling the bowl and coming out the vent tube.

Did you happen to turn the carb upside down after rebuilding it . That can mess up the float by doing it.Shake it a little then install and try again might fix it .
