axle codes?
I cant find any website that talks about 80's 9" rear axle code tags. this is what mine says I think
E A 2B05 50 9 S319B can anyone put that in english? Its on an 82 f150 thanks |
I think there's a label on the driver's side door opening that has a rearend code (at least on an '81).
That code would most likely give you the info you need. Just post that code and someone will most likely have the info. |
You're missing the first numbers on the left hand side. But, I can tell you that you have a 3.50 geared 9", 3.50 is the only factory 9" ratio that ends in 50.

it says H6 in the jam
|
Limited Slip:
Code...........Man...Size.......GVW....Gear Ratio H6.............Ford......................3750..... ..3.50 |
H6: limited slip rear
3750 lb. rating 3.50 ratio That's what it shows in my 81 book |
Already been answered, but I did finally find a chart for these trucks the other day for another thread. Here it is again just for kicks. Wish mine said H6, mine's the 16.

Thanks for all the info, folks. I'm new here - I'm working on restoring an '81 F150 short box, stepside, 4x4; restoring an '86 F350 crew can, longbox dually; an '86 F250 4x4 on propane; and a '91 F250 7.3 IDI 4x4. You folks always have the answers to my questions, even before I post them!

I attempted to read the tag on mine in darkness, using flashlight. It's weathered a bit since '81. I'll clean the tag off in AM and give it a better look.
350 ratio, 4 speed tranny, 351 engine, and a light weight truck should give me fairly respectable gas mileage. My '81 F150 stepside shortbox is my baby that will only be allowed outside when the weather is nice and the roads are dry. Same goes for my '86 F350 crewcab dually - I have younger trucks to do the serious work. My Old Dually is only allowed out to play when the road is good. Fords Forever! |

Ford = Flareside, a stepside is a (gasp) Chevrolet. |
Ouch! Flareside/stepside...thanks, I'll try to get it right from here onwards!
Thanks for the welcome. |
