Nice! But, as you know, I really like the F350. Ford finally brought the solid axle/leaf spring combo back, but only in '86 and only on the F350's.

Well Gary, as you know I’m more of a half ton guy, so Given the choice I’d be taking the wimpy little 5-lug truck with the 5.0

That F350 is beautiful. It's setup almost exactly like my truck.
Gary, do you see the transmission crossmember on that F350? I've never seen that before. But I worry I may need something like that because of how low my axle will sit compared to the transfer case. *EDIT* I have seen it before, via the MPC.

Shaun - I hadn't noticed it, but now that you mention it you are right - you may need it, or something like it.
Cory - I'll take the 8-luggers. You take the 5's.

I'll probably just end up modifying the one I have. It'll be easier in the long run. I remember years ago when I had the F150, I didn't see the need for a 3/4 or 1 ton truck. But now that I have one, I'm now more interested in heavy duty trucks. Funny how that works. |

Why not both? And a Bronco as well?
