i like the color could work for you to draw attention to your "company" as seems to stand out. just a thought. would love a f-450 but they don't seem to any around here.

Do I need the cowl and radiator core support, or can I just take the fenders, hood, grille, and lights?
the cowl piece on yours drops down on the sides, its flat across on the 92+. you need bumper, fenders, hood, grill, headlight assembly, plastic unit that the lights attach to and tie to the fenders and the cowl piece. you do not need the radiator core support but it makes it a ton easier. you gotta do a bit of cutting for the lights if you keep yours. heres a pic of my 90 core support cut for the 92-96 front clip. also, you need to make some new bumper mounts on your frame. the easiest way is to get some angle iron, move the fender brackets to the outside of your frame horns and bolt it there.

I don't have a 'company' - I am a one man show and can't stand the yellow. Cool with the highschool kids and their rice burners.

Put the truck to work today and hauled out a couple tons of logs. The weather was perfect and the truck ran great! Only a mother could love a face like this...



What year did they convert to serpentine belts? I forgot how much V-belts SUCK!

for taxes you'll have a "company" i hope. my truck is red and i hate red but might leave it that way if using it for work and it would draw in more work as would catch peoples eye better just like your yellow does. look at schiender's orange semis catch your eye on the highway don't they?
