Difference In 96-97 F250 Powerstroke

I was wondering what differences there were if any in the 96 F250 to the 97 F250 Powerstrokes. Anytime you look in the aftermarket catalogs the parts will stop at 1996 because in 97 Ford came out with the light duty 250 in the other body style. I was wondering if the parts for the 96 would fit on my 97 powerstroke

To answer your question yes, everything body wise is the same on the '96's as the HD '97.

Yes. even suspention. As long as its got a diesel in it the '97's are the exact same as the '96. there are very slight diferences, like the fender emblem, and a slight HP increase, but thats about it, same truck, just different year. when I get stuff for mine I just tell them its a '96 alot less hassle at the parts counter.
