If you can't go through it or around it, then go over it.
what automatic transmission came in the 99 F250 that looks like the F150?

other question....... how do I decode the vin so I don't have to keep asking?

No problem. I'm glad my insomnia was at least a little productive.

apparently I can't view it on my phone........ is the F150 7700 the same rig as the F250 LD?
Seen one (F150 7700) in traffic today on my way back from drooling over 4 color back lit 55" LED 240hz full on 1080p 3d TVs at Best Buy and it appeared to be 7 lug.....

Yea' the f150 7700 is the same as the LD250

When the super duty came out they just switched the name, I guess for less confusion.

It was also when the '150 got a facelift, I always figured that was the reason.

Generally when I see one they have had the crap beat out of them.

They also have unique rims, I always wondered how Ford figured up that it was cheaper to design freakishly oddball rims for it than to throw another 4 studs/nuts on a truck and using off the shelf Super Duty rims. :icon_confused:

(i just saw one for the first time, f-150 with 7 lug counted it about 10 times to make sure i wasn't seeing things)
