Can someone tell me what year this truck is? It has a 7.3 IDI in it.

 

1987 to 1991?

1988 might have been the first year for the 7.3L IDI.

 

What's the tenth digit of the VIN?

 

Okay it's a 1991 (M) Thank you both!

Another question, what year model(s) will the wheels on this truck fit on? 1987 to 1991 only?

 

Just about forever ago up to 1997. After that the wheels went metric.

 

Okay great, thanks again for the info!

 

8 lug Dual Rear Wheels (DRW) on a 6.50" bolt circle: 1967/97 F350; 1969/74 E300; 1975/2015 E350.

F250/350's went to metric wheels in 1999, but no Econoline of any year has metric wheels.

btw: 7.3L diesel introduced in 1988.

 

Bill, are all the same type of wheel? As in are they all lug-centric or are there years/options that were hub-centric? It seems like somewhere back in the fog, I've seen things.

 

if i remember correctly there were different rims for pickups and cab chassis trucks.
difference was in rim offset and width.

 

dat truck is purty

 

But only if the Cab & Chassis had DRW (Dual Rear Wheels).

 

well, yea. i was referring to dual rear wheel trucks.
do you remember the difference Bill? i think it was 10 MM offset more and 1 inch wider rim on cab chassis, no?

 

I don't have a clue. I don't recall a single instance when I was ever asked about wheel offsets during my 35 year career as a parts guy.

The only truck parts catalog that lists wheel offsets is 1964/72, but it's hit or miss at best.

 

Dually PICKUPS(only came is 2wd) have 5.00 offset
Dually Vans(only came cab n chassis) have a 5.15" offset
Dually 4wd cab-n-chassis have a 5.35 offset

 

thanks Brad!!
