New '86 Bumpside Owner

brickbreaker
Just picked up a 1986 F150 out of Arkansas and excited to join the forum and start tinkering with my new truck! I've owned several bumpsides and my current daily driver is a '71 bronco, but this is my first bullnose.

I've got a few things to straighten out, including a better engine tune, a heavy vibration when braking, and a fuel tank swap to fix a leak, so I'm sure you'll see me come out of the gate fairly quickly with some questions haha.

I'm located in Atlanta, GA (30327)

1986 F-150 SWB 4x4. Carbureted 302 (og. a 4.9 6cyl) w/ 4spd on the floor. Factory A/C.
