Handling/Suspension package?


Recommended Posts

Can anyone speak to what would have been included in the handling/suspension package associated with the "required trailer towing package" for a 1984 F150 with a 4.9, 4-speed overdrive, and a 3.55 rear end? I plan to upgrade from the 3.08 and have a line on a 3.55. I'd prefer to upgrade this way versus changing the transmission to keep by the Ford options as close as possible.

Sway bars? Stouter coil springs in the front and more leaf springs in the rear? Anything else?

"Super cooler" would be a three core radiator versus a normal two core radiator, right?

Thank you in advance!

I'll see if I can figure it out from the dealer's fact book, but it won't be until later today or, more likely, tomorrow.

Ok, I figured it out. But, in order to convey it to you I scanned in 220 pages and added them to the website. :nabble_smiley_super:

To answer your question go here: Documentation/Literature/1984 Literature/1984 Light Truck Data Book and then:

  • Page 32 gives the option code for the Trailer Towing/Camper Package

  • Page 34 gives the details on the Trailer Towing/Camper Package as well as Handling Package

But, to make it easy for you, here's Page 34: :nabble_smiley_wink:
