1985 F250 Lariat on Ebay in nice condition

Love these Idaho trucks. This old girl appears to be nice and straight looking. Has had a 5spd swap obviously...according to the CL it had a T19 in it. I'd imagine that a 5spd would work fairly well with 4:10 gears?

O.D. [.71:1?] would make that ~2.90 = sweet cruising!

Yep, that combo of tranny and gearing is a good one. In fact, I briefly thought of changing Big Blue's rear gearing to that when I got the D60 geared that way. But I liked 1800 RPM better than 2100 RPM at 65, so stayed with the 3.55's.

Nice truck. Love the colors.
