Rear Bumper

I would like to know if an 87 and later rear bumper would fit my 86 F150?

The F-series pick-ups are basically the same design from 80-96. Any bumper from any other year should interchange directly to your truck.

About a month ago I replaced the blower resistor on my '85 F-150. Apparently it is one of those dealer-only items. I picked one up from a local Ford dealer for about $18. The first dealer I went to had to call around to see what other dealers had the part in stock, so my advice is to be prepared for a little running around if you want/need it that day.

I may as well note that (at least on my truck) the new resistor was shaped a little differently than the original. I matched up the shapes with an old pair of aviation snips.
