the custom is the same, but those are newer F350 badges then the ones I got.
they are not the same.
I think I got the right numbers, but at some point somebody put the 87-91 custom on it.

I looked at them, thanks for the link.
I will use the F350 badge, but I will just sell the custom badges, i think.
I may use them. I like the way they look and do not like the way the 80-86 custom badge looks.

No problem.

I don't care too much for the 87-91 trucks, they look too bland.

But that is also how I was able to tell that the custom emblems came off of them.
Very rounded, and somewhat dull.
Get some pics once you get them on.

I am going to put the those things on my truck, so it does not matter.
I get what you mean about the looks, but I like them too.

why? please don't tell me that you have a worse seat. EDIT: mine is in good shape, but it hurts my back. Ever since i did this

It has hurt unless I have a really well fitting seat.
I would send it, but you could buy a better one out of a junk yard for less than the shipping to have mine. The really nice seats I got were only $20 a piece.

wow
Your junkyards have nice prices.
To get a seat here, costs me close to 65/seat. If it's a bench I'm looking at close to 85 depending on condition!
It's outrageous!

This one is cool, lots of 80 to 86 fords, maybe 20-30.
An axle is $200.
A tranny is $150.
A seat is $20
A motor ( even a 460 or a diesel ) is $250
A starter, $ 22
The badges you and I were talking about, they said they crush the trucks with them on anyway, and that I could have them free!
