Hi from Louisiana!

I just picked up a 99 F250 7.3L 6 spd 2wd long bed with 260,000 for pulling my LQ horse trailer. Hoping to be full time on the road by this time next year! First repair was 3 u joints after slinging drive shaft on first out of town trip. No ball press available in this small town, so did it with hammer and patience. Hoping rest will be minor compared to that!! I know I need front shocks, gonna change out cluster to LED backlights. Installing rail kit in bed with Curt gooseneck plate, and 7 blade RV plug.

Welcome!!
