99 Ford F250

[TeamM]

Let me know if you guys think this is a good price. The guy wants $12,000 OBO for a 99 ford f250 with the 7.3l diesel it has 150,000 miles. It is a 4x4 extended cab long bed. Has a 8inch lift and comes with 2 sets of tires one set is 35" Cooper SST's on 17 inch polished aluminum rims and the other set is 38" TSL radials with 17 inch black steel rims

Sound like it plus 2 sets of tires and wheels & a 8" lift cant go wrong.

On the door tag, what is the date of mfg?

Pull the intake tube off of the turbo and inspect the turbine wheel. Make sure the edges are nice and sharp, not rounded or gouged. Also look around for any leaks from under the engine and transmission. Grab the drive line and wiggle it to see if it has any movement. Take it for a test drive, from about 20mph put it to the floor and see how it does. Black smoke? Transmission shifting firm or sloppy? Firm is good, slamming and flair shifting is bad.

Other than those few things to check out, sounds like a good deal.

Ok your gonna have to describe to me twhat slamming and flair shifting is. I am pretty sure i know what firm shifting feels like. But what is flair shifting and slamming

[strokin_early_99]

slam shifting is when it feels like it is trying to shift and then it slams into gear.

Flair shifting is when it starts to shift and the engine revs up a little and then the shift completes.
