Greeting

How are you all doing on your Sunday? My name is Edward. I'm no mechanic except when I can't afford to pay someone to do truck work for me. But I have the Haynes Manual and I'm pretty mechanical. And old truck too, lol! So I may have more questions for you all.

My truck is a 1995 F250 XL with the 5.8L motor, 4 wheel drive, Super Duty, Heavy duty, and a bunch of tool boxes on the cack end instead of a standard bed.
This truck used to be a Municipal City Truck for the city of Colorado Springs Colorado so was well cared for. I just broke 200K miles on it. It has the off road package, the tow package and I believe it has an F350 suspension on it. I searched the VIN# and this truck has almost all of the factory upgrades on it. I think it's a 1 ton with that 350 suspension on it.

It's a beast and runs great. I've been fixing it up. I think I'm almost done, yay!

Welcome to FTE. That sounds like an interesting body style. Do you have a use for it, or are you going to swap on a more normal bed?

Don't forget to check out your state chapter.
