Hi !!!

I'm having trouble locating the proper brake booster for my '86 e-250 van. Getting something that corresponds to the GVW seems to be an issue. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Marty

Hey Everyone. I'm new and need some help. How do I tell if my 2010 F150 is a 2V or 3V by the VIN? O'Reilly's computer says it is a 2V but the air filter cover states a 3V.

What engine displacement does it have? Your choices are 4.6 or 5.4.

What transmission does it have? Your choices are 4-speed or 6-speed.

Do you neeeeeEEEeEeeed to be able to tell by the VIN or do you just need to know and then you're good?

Welcome aboard!
