302 Towing
I don't have much 302 experience, so I thought I should ask.
I found my neighbor a 85 Ford Econoline 150 like mine in pretty good condition, its a conversion van with a 302/auto overdrive, class 3 hitch.
You can't give full size vans away now, and the price is cheap.
He just needs it for towing a 4,000 lb boat and towing his 4 wheelers because he sold his pickup.
Will a 302 of that year handle the job OK ?
