Well, because they list it by front turn signal years. And obviously the front turn signals are different in 78-79. Side markers and tail lights are listed for 73-79. Sorry, can't find a good sarcasm emoji.

Parking Lamps:

1973 F100/350; 1974 F100/350 before serial number T80,001 have metal parking lamp bodies that the clear plastic lenses thread into.

1974 F100/350 from serial number T80,001 & 1975/77 F100/350 have one piece moulded plastic parking lamp assemblies.

1974 from serial number T80,001; 1975; 1976 before serial number C50,001 have clear parking lamps using a #1157NA amber bulb.

1976 from serial number C50,001 & 1977 have amber parking lamps using a clear #1157 bulb.

1978/79 parking lamps are different.

Are side markers lenses/lamps considered "parking lamps"?

To me "park lights" are the front ones and side markers are just that, side markers. lol Even though they all do come on with the 1st position of the headlight switch.

Tomato tomato, all in the dialect. Also depends if you live north of 3rd and Main st.

I just want to "clear" about which ones we're talking about so we avoid posting superfluous information.

Yeah, to me side markers are side markers denoting fore (amber) and aft (red).

"Parking lamps" are in the front and tail lights are.... well... in back.

All "clear", no pun intended. lol Yes side markers on a long and short bed are red on the side and ones on the front fenders are amber.

Unless its a "styleside" bed, then the side of the taillights housings are illuminated red, like trailer taillights.

And remember the front parking lamps double as the turning signals too.

So Brian did you order them yet? Are you going to run colored bulbs or go colored LED's?

Hey. I finally bit the bullet and presented the ones from aft when I finally got the page to load. It makes me nervous when they won't respond to emails and the site looks out of date, but they accepted my money instantly and I got shipping info this morning. I guess we'll see.

I'll be using leds, but it's a secret project. I'll share when I get done. �� I will be driving the truck by my birthday (march 10), so not much longer.

Are you making a shake down run to my place so I can see the finished product and how those rear leaf springs worked out?

Also will you be able to make the April 15th Performance Inc (Alan and Earthquake) record tempt of the pyramid car crush?

Keep up posted on the product quality and your LED trick.

Sure, I can do that. I haven't been on site much, so I don't know anything about that event?
