Moved to Large Truck.

Welcome to FTE!

F90 = L900 gas. (can you post a picture of your truck)

K = 477 4V Super Duty engine

V = Kentucky Truck Plant

Q92419 = 1973 sequential numbers

162 = 162 inch wheelbase

J = Rangoon Red

F902 = L900 Gas, 27,500 GVWR

4A8 = I don't have the codes for interior items, but the "8" should be "Standard cab without butterfly hood"

Q = 5 speed direct Dana/Spicer model 5652 transmission

FB = Eaton model 18221 two speed axle / ratios 6.50-8.87 / 22,000 lb capacity

5 = Ford 9,000 lb capacity front axle without power steering

27500 = 27,500 lb GVWR, bring your CDL!

52 = Dallas district code

If you find something that doesn't match, let me know. I'm new at the nearly full decode and while I don't like it much, I may grow to hate it. ()
