The light duty is built on the same frame as the F-150 with heavier duty springs and axles. In 1999 the light and heavy duty were separated as the regular F-250 and the F-250 Super Duty. It is powered with a 6. This truck runs and looks excellent. The heavy duty model shared frame and hardware characteristics with the F-350 one ton model. Later in 04, Ford continued the use of the 7 lug wheels with a heavy payload F150. She thinks a PowerStroke with 100k on it' is a rip off! I know the one I owned had the highest payload of any truck I've owned at 2800lbs! The non super duty stayed in the light duty category with the F-150.
It carried through the 1999 model year and was available in a variety of drive and cab configurations. The seat is new too. They made that kind of F250 for a couple years. I could not make her understand that 100k is nothing to that engine,it's just broke in. I have 4 wheels from my F250. It says it has the towing package so it should have an add on trans cooler.
Or is this just a guy who got some F250 badges and stuck them on his F150? If you go to th introductions, you can see mine with Eagle 58's, 17x8. Fisher ematch says you can put an 8 foot blade on it. It was supposed to be available only with the 4r100 but there have been reports of some coming with the 4r70w. Anyone have a idea of where i can get some? Also included are the owners manuals one keyless remote. The F-250 has been available for years as part of the Ford lineup. The Wifes giving me real grief about my other choices.
They continued that through the then new f150 body style. . The carpet is in great shape. Optional in all other states. That would change her mind. The interior of this truck is in great shape for the mileage.
Some parts like rotors and maybe some driveline items may have less choice for replacement equals higher prices due to the fact that they were a low volume truck. I found a bunch of great normal milage trucks today. I am thinking a standard duty Meyer 7. The interior of the truck is super clean. It was offered in two versions, the light duty and the heavy duty.
I went and looked at it today, a forty mile ride. I found 5 at about 100-120K on them. They are the original ones off my truck. Exceptional condition inside and out. Bucket front seats with optional fold flat rear seat. Ford has had F-250 light and heavy duty models at different points in time.
I need wheels for my 1998 F 250 Light Duty 4x4. Hey olddog82, I would like to buy a 7 lug wheel from you. The seats are in great shape overall. They are the original ones off my truck. They were available with the 4.
Clear South Carolina title, just serviced with 2 New batteries, power windows and locks with factory remote, factory Ford painted step boards. The auto could be either the 4r70w or 4r100. As early as 1998, the F-250 and F-350 were assigned their own heavy duty category by Ford. Think it sounds like the outstanding deal for a new plow truck? If you look at a 2000 and up, on the tailgate badge, it says 7700 in red under the F150 emblem. It was a leased vehicle, it's clean as hell not a spot on it.
In 2000 all F-250 trucks recieved the Super Duty badge and they have ever since. All original paint, Been garage kept, non smoker, interior looks as New! All had goofy 7 lug wheels. The Super Duty resided in the category with the F-350. It was not smoked in. It has the towing package and the heavy suspension package. It has aftermarket rustproofing, running boards and mirrors.
My other truck I bought was a 1999 F250 crew cab superduty 6. It has automatic transmission, Air Conditioning, and clean interior. It has the towing package and the heavy suspension package. They changed it to F150 with the 7700 payload package in 2000 to avoid confusion with the F250 Superduty. I just bought a 1999 F350 ext cab superduty 7.
