I found my 84 - 90 decoder

1FT = Ford, truck, complete vehicle
H = 9,001 - 10,000 pounds
F25 = F Series, F250, 4x2, pickup - regular cab
I = 6.9, 420 CID,V8, diesel, Intl. Harvester
9 = the ninth position is a check digit, government assigned
F = 1985 year of production
P = Twin Cities, ST. Paul Minnesota assembly plant
B48078 = production number

A00001 - A99999 is assigned to the first 99,999 vehicles built
B00001 - B99999 is assigned to the second 99,999 vehicles built
So your truck was 99,999 + 48078 =148077 minus 2 because there is no 00000 number
So your truck was the 148,075 truck built in the 85 model year production run
