Thank you, Dean in Iowa
F60 = F600, 2WD, gas
D = 330 2V HD "XD". Ford stated using "XD" for "Heavy Duty) in the mid '70s, possibly due to the differences made by smog equipment. They used "eXtra Duty" and "eXclusive Duty" also, possibly for U-Haul F350s with the 330.
V = Kentucky Truck Plant
A52202 = 1976 series number
158 = 158 inche wheelbase
W = Medium Ivy Bronze Metallic
F602 = F600 2WD gas, 19,200 lbs GVWR
AA8 = Regular cab, standard. I do not have upholstery and seat info.
A = New Process model 435 four speed transmission
64K
64 = Rockwell (Timken) model F-106 single speed rear axle, 15,000 lbs capacity, 6.80 ratio
K = Ford 5,500 lb capacity front axle with power steering
19200 = 19,200 lbs GVWR
542331
54 = Omaha District Code
2331 = Special Order Number
Color, engine, trans, axle codes are all there, so the special order must have been something else. AFAIK.
Let me know if something doesn't match up.

The carb I am told is a simple replacement diaphragm? But researching the brakes seems it could be many different issues. I will have to see when it gets to me..
Thank you,,

Carb rebuild kit will have the parts to stop leaks. It should be a Holley 2bbl.
