Olaf Posted April 23, 2023 Author Share Posted April 23, 2023 Gary the complete vehicle has been imported from the USA. Is the king pin the same on all F250 and F350 chassis (1986)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Is the king pin the same on all F250 and F350 chassis (1986)? Olaf - Here's the info from the master parts catalog. The first snippet shows that your truck takes the parts in parts list 30.1F or 30.1K, depending on when it was made. And that both F250's and F350's use the same parts list. But in the 2nd pair of snippets you can see that both of the lists use the same bushing kit, D5UZ 3110-B, and the same bushing and pin kit, E0TZ 3111-A. So yes, both 1986 F250's and 350's use the same king pins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that the 2WD trucks all went to ball joints in 1987 with the possible exception of the F-Super Duty which had a beam axle and leaf springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I noticed the forged axles, which meant king pins. Probably the same ones as on Darth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
