looking for some help . just picked up a nice 1964 f350 2 wheel drive 4sd with factory dump last week and have come up with a small list of parts I can not find
shifter boot
ebrake boot
complete window seal kits
.
im also looking to upgrade the brake on this truck . I see most sites offer a power brake kit but are they just universal kits or do they bolt in . also I cant find any info if disc brake can be converted on to this truck . was thinking later kinpin trucks with disc brakes could fit but have found no supporting info . also has anyone put power steering in one of theses , truck drives great but its a hand full being a 1 ton truck . thank you again

 

Did you avoid the widowmaker wheels? I can't tell from the photo. Very cool truck!

 

C1TZ-2A713-A .. Parking Brake Lever Boot-Use with 4 speed / 8 19/32" long x 6 11/16" wide with 6 holes / Obsolete

Applications: 1961/66 F350/700 / No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

F100/700's with T-98 4 speed have a foam rubber pad that fits below the floor pan, acts as a dust shield.

No such thing as a factory dump bed. The only beds available for 1961/66 F350's: 9' Express Flareside & Styleside; Platform (Flat Bed) & Platform & Rack (Stake Bed).

 

Thanks for the replys no widow rims . This is my first vehicle I am restoring . In my 20s and started restoring bike a really liked this truck . Number dummy you are right after removing some of the crap in the Truck I did notice there was nothing missing for the shifter area . That's what I thought for the e brake boot. Do you know if any other trucks boots kind of fit or are close . Also I am having a hard time getting it in to gears grinds some times and I can not get it in to reverse . The shifter does twist so I don't know if that has something to do with it thanks again guys any insight is much appreciated

 

You're unfortunately mistaken about your wheels. They do have the Firestone RH-5° widow maker outer rims. The fact that you don't see a separate locking ring is the definitive sign. Picture and diagram below. Remedies exist. Tubeless 17.5" or 19.5" wheels were made and optional for the 6 lug x 7.25" pattern, but not so easy to find. Can also have your center discs pulled and remounted into new tubeless 17" rims by places such as Stockton Wheel. Stu

 

Idk if it makes a difference but this is a Canadian truck . I looked hard a the rims and can't see a difference between and a 2 piece I've seen before. They are 17in rims tubeless tires . I work at a shop in town will take one off and dismount it here at work

 

Canadian doesn't change anything. Pull the valve cores before screwing with them. Stu

 

I gave you the applications for the ebrake boot. Here they are again: 1961/66 F350/700.

The T-98 4 speed shift lever retainer cap threads off/on. Once it's removed, a roll pin (7B125 in pic) is visible within the threads that locks the shift lever in place.

Place the shift lever in neutral, remove the cap and take a look-see.

 

Ok will do . I do believe your right about the rims it sucks will have to sit on that one for a bit to determine what I will do there. Thanks again for the info I went a head and pulled that cap off the pins intact but is worn down alot. Going to cut up a drill bit when I get home and see if that works . Would that really prevent me from getting in to reverse?

 

Want to thank everyone for the great advice thanks again . I'm thinking of swapping out my dana 70 in the bake for a later dana 70 with a 8 bolt pattern . Would like to know if there is a later year model I can look for to steal a rear axle out of that would bolt in place. Was also looking at the front brake. Has anyone done a front disc conversion on these truck with out swapping the front axle. And is there a brake boost and master comb that bolts in place ie aftermarket or later year. Thanks again guys .

 

F350s had an optional power brake booster, parts are hard to find.


Your out of luck on converting the front 5 lug drums to anything else.


Your best bet is to have your wheel centers installed in new rims.


The wheels are a major reason why many shy away from these trucks. I have seen several F350s in nice condition at a good price, but didn't want to deal with these issues.

 

All 1953/66 F350's (and P350 Parcel Delivery's) have 6 lug wheels on a 7.25" bolt circle.
