See your data plate, located in the glove box lid for tranny and rear axle info. At least that's where it is on a F100
Thanks 55 Bubba,
Great help, this truck was offered to me at a very small price, there are some small parts I can use, but the body is completely gone, the drive train is all original and runs. I'm thinkin to try and sell the engine and trany to recoop my cost.
Just have to figure the pros and cons.
Thank alot
Mike
If you are thinking of selling that 239, I'd be interested. Let me know!! I'm in Oregon , so shipping will be an issue, but I'm willing to look into the expense.
