Part search

Hey guys, I have been trying to install my new grill and I just cannot get it to fit right. I think some of the supports may have been bent out of shape at the sorry @&$&&&@ paint shop it has been at. The piece I'm looking at bolts across the top of the core support. Does anyone have a source for thi part? Or am I gonna need to do some junkyard hunting? And if so , does anyone know if it has to be 80-86 or if other years will work.

Thanks a bunch!
Kevin

If you are talking about 8182 and 8183 in this (Radiator and Grille - Gary's Garagemahal) then the part #'s are as follows:
  • 1980 - 82: EOTZ 8182-A for the right hand, and E0TZ 8183—A for left hand
  • 1983 - 86: EOTZ 8182-A for the right hand, and E3TZ 8183—B for left hand
I don't understand that because the grilles were the same for '80 & '81, and then '82 - '86, so apparently they changed something in '83 that was used through '86. Anyway, perhaps you can find them new. Otherwise it is salvage time.

As for other years, no. The 1980 trucks were completely different than the 79's, and the 87's were very different from 86's - especially in the grille area.

Retainer (Grille Moulding Upper) is E0TZ 8B218-A. Same for 1980 - 86.

Brace (Hood Latch Support) 80/86 F100/350 — gas and diesel exc. extra cool radiator, U150
E4TZ 16864-A

I would go to a salvage rather than worry about buying them new. Anyway, good luck.

Thanks, I'm gonna go looking today. The local yard only has 3 and I don't know what shape they are in. At least now that I have part numbers I have options. You and some of the other guys on this forum have helped me so much, I would never have known how to get these numbers. Thank you so much.

Welcome. BUT, the #'s on the parts are, oddly enough, not part #'s. So, don't look at the numbers on the parts. Just take them if they are off an 80-86 and are in good shape.

1956 was the last year that Ford put actual part numbers on parts.
