Not having a lot of luck decoding the information on the plate. Any help Appreciated. F60AK700419 Need engine size and transmission, rear-end information as complete as possible
700419 = 1965 numerical series, June 1965 production
174 = 174 inch wheelbase
G = Chrome Yellow (looks like some peeking out around the warranty plate)
F602 = F600 gas, 4x2, 20,000 lbs GVWR
481
4 = Beige Vinyl
81 = Cab and chassis vehicle
N = New Process model 435 four speed transmission OR Dana (Spicer) model 5652 five speed direct transmission (both use the same code for '64-'65) (Shop manual says 5 speed)
F8 = Eaton model 13802 two speed rear axle, 15,000 lbs capacity, 6.33 / 8.81 ratios
No front axle code. Only optional front axle codes were listed between '64 & '69, so assume this to be a Ford axle with at least 5,000 lbs capacity and no power steering.
20000 = 20,000 lbs GVWR
160 3800 = 160 Certified Net HP @ 3800 RPM
650493
65 = Oklahoma City District Sales Office
0493 = Special Order Number
Check your wheels--widowmaker Firestones were on a lot of these.
Wheels look like lock ring but hard to tell

Will try to get a better picture. Looking through holes in front wheel I can see the numbers BUDD 87828 budd 87828
Thank You for information. Sorry to be such a pain. Later
I live in Gotebo, Oklahoma.
Changing gear just a little.
If a person wanted to change out complete rear-end assembly ( for something later model ) what would be a good year to start measuring with.
Honestly I can find several trucks in my area that I can buy the complete truck cheaper than buying tires and wheels for this truck.
What years and model numbers (Ford,) rear-end assembly would be compatible?
Yes mainly runs and drives, brakes need repair.(Wheel Cylinders or kits), Unable to find decent price on replacement tires and wheels for truck. Yes it drives but needs wheel cylinders and brakes on rear. Can find a complete rear-end assemble with ten holes wheels 22.5 and good radial tires.
If I can find one with decent radial tires and wheels it will be cheaper cheaper than replacing all the items and still having to find wheels and tires.
