Walkaround video of my 1984 Ford F-250 4x4. I've owned this truck since September 1997 and did a complete frame off restoration between July 1998 and August 1999. Originally equipped with a 351W and C-6 automatic, it now has a 460 with a ZF 5 speed. Engine specs: 460 bored .030" over, forged flat top pistons with 9.5:1 compression, ported 96cc D3VE heads, Edelbrock intake, Holley carb, Crane Powermax cam with pre '73 Cloyes double roller chain, MSD 6AL ignition box with Blaster coil. Transmission is a ZF 5 speed conversion pulled from a '88 F-250 with a custom shifter I patterned after a T-19 four speed shifter so it looks original. Wheels are 305/70R16 BF Goodrich Mud Terrain KM2 mounted on American Racing Outlaw II 16x10 rims. Tuff Country 2 1/2" suspension lift, Rancho stabilizer, Dana 44 TTB front axle, Sterling 10.25 rear with 3.55 gears. Interior is fully restored with cruise, air conditioning and factory tach.
Update: I uploaded a new video with several new updates I recently made to the truck:

@ELKOKE- 6 лет назад

How much did it cost you to restore it and how much is your truck worth now?

@rowdyredneck1975 6 лет назад

I haven't kept track of everything but I'd guess I have at least $15K invested in it. Today I'd say its worth at least $20K, maybe a little higher if the right person wanted it badly enough. I'll never sell it though. I've owned it for 20 years and I've put so much of myself into it that its become a part of me.

@rowdyredneck1975 8 лет назад

Since installing the 5 speed I average around 11 miles per gallon. With the original four speed I only got around 8 or 9 miles per gallon at best. Needless to say it doesn't get driven much. Its mostly a weekend toy and only sees around 500 miles a year lately.

@NunyaBiznez17 7 лет назад

back up....it took 16 years to do this?????? the fuck???? all of the sudden I don't want a project truck

@rowdyredneck1975 7 лет назад

I did the majority of it within the first two years. From the time I stripped it down to the frame until I had the new body on, engine in and painted it was probably about 1 1/2 years and I've been driving it ever since. Over the years I've added numerous upgrades though like finishing the interior, adding the suspension lift, swapping in the 5 speed transmission, and most recently the solid front axle swap I just finished a few weeks ago. I know I've invested well over $20K into this truck since I started, but I've done almost all of the work on it myself and I built it the way I wanted it which makes it priceless to me.

@rowdyredneck1975 7 лет назад

The transmission swap is a simple bolt in. Its much easier if you can find a complete donor truck to get all the parts from but you should be able to find everything you need from a junk yard. The original dash pad was cracked so I replaced it with a new reproduction one and painted the rest of the interior pieces to match.

Looking pretty mint! I’ve got an 86 f250 like this, someday going to toss the d44hd for a d60 out of my f350, and possibly the zf5. I’ve heard people say the zf5 is noisy without a dual mass flywheel but also that the DMF sucks. What did you end up with? My zf5 isn’t loud but again, can’t say I know what’s in it for a flywheel. My f250 currently has a c6

@rowdyredneck1975 5 лет назад

I did the Dana 60 swap about a year or two after I made this video, new video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n8cT2ZSd2Qs.html Dual mass flywheel is diesel only, all gas engines used a regular flywheel. There is a slight gear rollover noise at idle but its not bad at all. The ZF can be pretty noisy on a diesel without a dual mass flywheel though. It does help some if you overfill it by pouring an extra quart of fluid through the shifter hole.

@chanceknighten3214 5 лет назад

I can’t tell you how nice and wonderful it is to see someone else going through the same process if not similar for such gorgeous vehicles just started working on a 1983. I have two questions not sure if you would get around to me. But did you replace the dash? As well as the fuel sending system?

@rowdyredneck1975 5 лет назад

Yes, the dash pad was replaced because the speaker grill was cracked and broken which is a very common problem with these trucks. I bought a new reproduction from Dashes Direct. They're not cheap but they are made with the original Ford tooling so they fit and look original. This was originally a 351W truck and I'm still using the original fuel system. 460 trucks used a return line to prevent vapor lock. I have had some problems with that in the past, but wrapping the fuel lines with reflective heat wrap solved the issue.

hey man what does a steering damper do on a Ford f truck 4x4 does it take the free play away

@rowdyredneck1975 8 лет назад

It has no effect on free play. Think of it as a shock absorber. Larger tires have more rotating mass which in turn can transmit more shock and vibration back into the steering system. A steering stabilizer helps absorb and cancel out those effects making it easier to maintain control.

hey man, about how much did you spend on restoring the body??

@rowdyredneck1975 8 лет назад

+TurtleTF I don't remember exactly how much the cab, box and fenders cost but I think I paid around $650 for the cab, $500 for the box, and around $250 for the front fenders. The fenders were new but the box and cab were used. The paint job was about $4,500. This was about 17 years ago though so I'm sure it would cost a lot more now.
