Gary Lewis Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 My truck is an 8 lug. Don’t know if the axels were swapped out. But I’m pretty sure all of the F-250s no matter what GVWR was is going to be 8 lug. But I could be wrong, but would love some clarity. Yes, all F250's were 8-lug. You can see that on the Documentation/Driveline/Wheels page and then the Applications tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 8,500 gvw F-250's have eight lug hubs and a full floating rear axle. As a running change during the 1985 M.Y. Ford started using the Sterling 10.25 rear. With the Dana prior to that you have to pull the axles to get the brake drums off. The light 250 (7,700 lbs) they had a "semi floating" rear, where the hub was flush with the drum, and didn't have eight lugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1986F150Six Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I wouldn't have expected a 302 in a 250. They seemed to show up once in a while in Non-HD F250's. Less than 8500 GVWR. Let me share a bit of trivia from one who likes the 300/4.9L engine. Ford offered the 302 in trucks up to and including the F250. The 300/4.9L was offered up to and including F600s. Hmmm?
