RARE truck?

[jonnydiesel]

I wolud like to know if any one seen trucks like this and how many 1996 f250 psd trucks were many that are 2wd. short bed ext cab with f350 frame and f450 suspension. i cant find anything on the web to tell me.

there are quite a few 2wd obs the frame are same on f250 and f350s and it might just have heavier rear leaf springs like a 450

[jethro]

that is probably because they never made a truck like that from the factory if it has 450 suspension it would have come as a 450 someone made that truck what it is.

its f450 leafs and it came like that from ford i just looked it has f350 front my dad got it new so we didnt make it

[jonnydiesel]

the trucks some kind of towhaul special its factory 5wheel and some other towing goodies its got a huge rear end and the frame is bigger then my friend f250 psd

Ok time to clear up a few things here. The OBS F250 and F350 have exactly the same frame from the factory. The 2wd F250 and F350 used the exact same front end.

As to the the 450 spring pack its possible but unlikely. Most likely what it has is the Camper package spring set.

As far as the huge rear end. The 250 and 350 use the same exact rear as well. A 450 rear would have 10 bolt wheels and be a dually rear as well

if so how come my friends frame rear and leaf springs look smaller then my truck i just looked at his 1996 f250 and his dads 1995 f350 and they look tiny and my stuff looks huge and when i put new leafs on i had to buy 450 because thats what was on it

Theres really no way anyone can give a positive answer without seeing pictures to see what were looking at. Post some pics and I'm sure you will get a lot more information.

idk but measure to find out then it is either the same a the 250/350 stuff or it is not stock to your truck. or your truck is really a 450 with a different cab or something
