- pickup 109,875 diesel black automatic
It has the desirable 7. 3 idi factory turbo diesel engine with an automatic overdrive transmission. It has all the xlt options like power windows, locks, a/c, cruise, factory am/fm cassette, it has a manual shifting transfer case, and manual lockout hubs. These trucks are becoming more difficult to find. I purchased this truck about 8 months ago from an older gentleman. It had been sitting for years on his property and wasn't operational. The body is solid with little to no rust. The paint also exhibits cracking on the doors and cab sides and there are quite a few decent sized dents around the truck in various places. I've tried to show pictures of these areas. The cab corners are rock solid as are the rocker panels and floor pans. The doors and tailgate seams are also clean with no visible signs of rust or bubbling. The box sides and fenders also appear to be solid. The truck was missing the factory fender open moldings so i installed a used set i had from another truck. There is some rust underneath the box on the cross braces but it isn't a structural issue at this time and the box floor is still nice and solid. At one time it was equipped with a gooseneck ball in the box. The mounting plate is still there but the ball has been removed and a bed liner installed. The truck has heavy duty rear springs and seems like it could tow a house. The interior is clean, the seat has some wear but no rips, the carpeting has some discoloration but no holes, the headliner is nice, the dash has a crack in the pad, the power windows and locks are in working order, the radio is operational including the lcd display. The gauges are also in working order. The tires are in near new condition and a matched set of firestone steeltek a/t. As i previously stated the truck wasn't running when i bought it. I was looking for a good tow rig for my enclosed trailer and these trucks have a good reputation for power and fuel economy. In the time i've owned this truck i've driven it only a couple hundred miles. I've basically driven it enough to find and repair problems necessary to make it a nice driver. Since i purchased this truck i found a crew cab which was my original choice so i decided to sell this one. I will make a list of all the things i've repaired. I would add i believe the majority of the repairs were necessary because this truck sat for so long. I believe the reason the prior owner quit driving the truck was two fold. The first was a broken shifter shaft. (common issue on these ford trucks.) it is mounted to the top of the column and makes it possible to shift the transmission. I removed the column and replaced the shaft with a new one from ford as well as new bushings. Then i found the injection pump had failed. I replaced the pump with a remanufactured unit from pensacola diesel. When i asked the representative about the pump failure he informed me it's becoming more and more common. The modern blended diesel fuel doesn't last as long as the old stuff and it can harm the seals in the pump if the truck isn't driven regularly. I have used an additive in the fuel since replacing the pump. The new pump is the step up unit, offering a small bump in power output without the need to increase injector size. The truck still retains the stock turbo, exhaust and injectors. It hasn't been modified in any other way that i know of. Once i got the truck up and running i replaced both front brake calipers with reman units from napa along with premium brake pads. I also replaced both front rubber brake hoses and a section of rear brake line along the axle. I changed the oil, and fuel filter, i repla.
