Master Parts Catalog Updates

Gary Lewis

I've added a page in Documentation/Literature/Miscellaneous Literature/Master Parts Catalog, and on that page are links to 13 pages that are missing in the commercially available MPC's.  You can download those pages and add them to your MPC to make it complete.  

Note that they are just 13 pages of an over 5000 page document, so by themselves they won't do you any good.  But, if you have either the HiPo Parts or Forel Publishing version of the MPC, both of which are missing those pages, you can update your catalog.

Also, even Numberdummy said he doesn't have some of these pages.

So glad everything worked out as well as it did. I'm glad we were able to come together to help provide to the site and our cause. The page looks great Gary!

As far as I know, this forum is the most comprehensive list of anything remotely related to these trucks that is available, period, in the history of ever. I'd argue this forum is more valuable than anything we've ever had that wasn't a Ford dealer back in the day, and even then this information we have now was not then publicly available as it is today. I am so very glad these trucks are having a massive resurgence in popularity.


Excellent work my friend, as a whole.


Somewhat off topic here, I wonder if it wouldn't be a bad idea to have some write ups on the site for those interested in front clip swapping the later trucks to our body style. I myself have done it, and it seems to be a super popular thing to do with the later models, if one glance at social media is any indication.

Thanks!  I do hope this site can be a big benefit to everyone.  And I'm sure that we do have the most comprehensive information anywhere on these trucks.

As for for the front clip swap, we have a thread called Converting 87-96 F trucks to Bullnoses, among others.  But we don't have a page in the documentation section on it.  Are you volunteering to write one?

I'm sure I could spare an afternoon to type something up one day. Although I don't really have much in the way of photos for when I did mine, I was in a rush as I needed a way to work.

It was pretty straight forward.
