Numberdummy has not been on for a few weeks. Not sure what, if anything, is going on there.
As to your wheels, the LF wheel has a locking ring. Those wheels are safe and usable. You just need to find a truck tire place that knows how to work on them. Check the rest of your wheels. Locking ring = ok wheel.
Tubeless wheels in 22.5" with the 6 lug pattern are hard to find. There are several threads here regarding wheels. Many have "widowmaker" in the title. I'll try to find a couple for you. I have a project cooking myself right now so I have not been here as often as usual.
Well Im back with a another Ford but much bigger than my old 67 F250. I just picked up this 1968 N series. I think it's a N600 but I am not 100% sure.
I would really appreciate a VIN decode please. The seller was gifted the truck and knew very little about it.
No FTE for 2 months, old man is tired of doing this jazz. But yesterday, I looked in here and noticed the backlog of undecoded VIN's, so I'm decoding them.
