Welcome wildthunder, congrats on the 1955 F350, I love my 56 F350!
Most of the parts are same as the F100 but when it comes to brakes and steering it can be a challenge. Since you`ve posted in the 48/60 forum help should be on it`s way from F350 owners.
Also drop by your local IA chapter to see if there`s any other similar trucks there: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum140/
