1986F150Six Posted February 22, 2019 Author Share Posted February 22, 2019 David - I right-clicked the picture, clicked "Copy image address", then clicked Insert Image here and pasted the link into the "Or copy an image from the Internet" field - making sure that the existing "http://" got overwritten. But I could have also copied the image if I'd wanted. Anyway, here 'tis: Thank you!

Chrome is a memory hog, but it has a feature that I think is essential in searching - the ability to tell it to only return results that fit exactly the parameters given - called "verbatim". Edge doesn't have that. In fact, most browsers don't have that feature. And I won't use a browser without it. Two days ago I was talking with my brother about parts for his '55 Chevy. He said that he was really having trouble finding them in his searches as he was getting search results that had stuff for which he hadn't searched. So we spent quite a while on the phone turning off extensions in Chrome and learning how to use "verbatim". Yesterday when we met and I handed off the carb and a bunch of air cleaners he said that the changes we made transformed his ability to find things.

Rembrant Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Check out the new page: Picture Galleries/1984 FORD F-150 XLT PICKUP. So whats up with the front bumper on this truck? Are there supposed to be bumper guards there and they're missing, or did the bumpers actually come like this if optioned so? It just looks weird to me.

We just aren't used to seeing those pads w/o the bumper guards. In the illustration below, which came from here (Exterior/Bumpers) you can see that there are two pads. And on the Part Numbers tab you can see that there's an Outer pad and a Center pad - and they don't require the bumper guards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe I have ever seen a front bumper configured that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
