I am actually looking for a 4wheel drive F350 to convert mine to 4wheel drive. Or I could just get another F350 Crew Cab 4X4 and call it good.LOL

 

22-30 is getting off topic!!! lol All I can say is, if you have to go up in a plane it get it up, then you have problems that only some certain drug can help!

 

Hello Glenn. Glad to see ya found Travis's thread.LOL

 

I would prefer the purchasing another truck myself. But I am very particular with my trucks haha and that would be very difficult around here with all the road salt. But I've got a front end out of a 86 or an 87 f-350 dually with 4.10's. The year would make it a king pin model i believe but that shouldnt make a difference, I think bluemule actually used one in his truck. But if we end up meeting up while im down in TX this summer or on the way down there or something like that i could bring down for you if your still looking for one.

 

We need to stay in contact about this. Maybe we could caravan down there together.

 

Thanks Dually, I couln't help myself. Fox, would a 80 4by4 F250 also be a king pin model? I have one in perfect condition except for a blown 302. I think I was told that the front end was to weak for a PSD?

 

I believe all of the older 4X4 front ends were king pin. But I could be wrong.

 

don't think they all were slick.

and to the ones who answered my question. how dare y'all think of it like that. i know i mispelled a word, but DANG!! why the heck would y'all be wearing a stupid jacket in the desert anyways??? haha.

Sam, STOP NOW!!!! do no covert to a 4x4 or injectors or an IC. your getting PMS pretty dang bad, but you aren't spending money to help make it feel better. haha. sell that porshe and you could probably have hybrids, H2E, H11 studs, ported heads, valair clutch, etc. haha.

Speaking of which i'm going up to Dan's on Monday. gotta get a sled pulling clutch rebuilt that my brother warped from 4th gear boosted launches in his front yard. haha. once he figured out he messed it up i pulled over there and did a 3rd gear burnout just to show him my clutch works. haha. Plus, I need to talk to Dan about TWO clutches. well hold on make that 3 i guess. haha.

 

Ya i think that Sam is correct. I too am fairly certain that all of the front ends are the same, and as far as i know that would be a king pin style axle.

Sam- Ya that would be sweet. I think as it is we are going to have two trucks rollin' down from MA, and probably 4 people. Me my buddy rob in my truck and my cousin steve (rideracelivemx7) and someone else in his truck. So that could turn into a nice convoy. We are planning on doing it in two days and stopping at Neal's at the end of day one. And on the way back i believe that we are going to hit up Riff Raff east, as long as it fits into the time frame correctly.

 

Ok maybe Travis is correct. I dont know for sure but I would think that you could easily be determined, just see if its got ball joints haha.

 

oops messed this up

 

I could meet ya at Neals place. It is only a few hours away and this would make the trip to Texas a lot more fun.

Travis, I need someone like you to buy that Porsche.LOL

The desert get real cold in the winter. The Mojave desert gets snow almost every year. That is why I would have a jacket on. LOL

 

ok here ya go. got our answer and i'm wrong again. i'm suckin' it up lately. haha

If I am wrong about the king pin front ends, just remember that I am driving a newer 2wd. LOL

 

so obviously anything from '85-'97 will work
