So this may be a dum question but I am curious what year plow frames will fit my 88 f250? Perferably with out doing any modifications.

 

any one from 1980-1996

 

80-97 F250-F350

 

No, The 92+ plow frames are different, the frames on the trucks are different, you need a frame from 80-91, just put a Meyer setup on my 88 Bronco. My 95 F350 has a defferent frame.

This is what you need.

Ill take pics of the 2 different ones tomorrow morning for ya.

 

frames cant be that different if the body mounts are all in the same places

 

but the frames are different enough that the 2 kits are not interchangeable without major modification.

 

The front frame sections arnt the same. On the 91 down the frame is a c channel in the front, not boxed. The 92+ are boxed in the front.

 

Here are pics of the 2 different setups, you will see that they are very different and cant be swapped.
92-97




80-91

 

Been there tried it doesnt work frames are way different.

 

did u make that
the western conventional frame is what i got on my 87 f150 theses frames are real wide compaired to other trucks

 

No I didnt make either frames, there both Meyer setups. The 1 came on my 95 F350, and the one I just put on my bronco last week.

 

what is the difference between the 85 bronco frame and the 87, can i get a 87 meyers frame to adapt to a 85 frame, and how hard will it be? thanks

 

anything is possible if you have torches, a welder and fabrication skills

 

80-91 frames are the same, so that should be a direct swap with no modification needed.
