    Air force ford f 800

    It has the dual 50-gallon tanks, nice. I'm sure you know this already but for any novices out there, but if your run bobtail, these trucks not only have an inhumanly harsh ride, the brakes are also an invitation to disaster since basically all the weight is pretty high above the front axle so...

    Front hinges, you also need the quarter-fenders (shown). I don't know why the new front wouldn't fit, I personally hate the look but I know it's more aerodynamic.

    Air force ford f 800

    Oh, ouch. Just noticed yours is an alligator hood, while you are checking yards for the parts you need, I'd suggest treating yourself to a nice 1-peice fiberglass front end. Seems like you can use the parts off a 6.6, you might find one somebody is selling cheap...

    Assuming it's in good shape, that's a great truck as a good price. I'd be on it in a hot minute. The 7.8 and MT643 with 4.1 is a winning combination on the freeway for sure, as long as you don't need more than 240HP. 72K is nothing for that motor. If there is one thing that might give up on a...

    Air force ford f 800

    Decent for what, for a non all-wheel drive vocational truck? I like mine just fine. They are much easier to work on and more modern than the military stuff but might not take as much physical abuse. 1992 had the intercooler and was one of the last trucks before Ford went with the Cummins...
