Still thinning the herd and now that my burb is up and running well I don't NEED this, would love to keep this truck, but I need to let it go. I have had this truck since I was 16 and my dad had it before me. I got it from him when I started doing rodeo. Truck has hide away goose neck hitch and beast of a rear bumper. Brake controller works and has all the adjustments controllable. I have hauled an 8 horse trailer with stock, tack and feed and the truck didnt choke at all all over Nebraska, Kansas, Wyoming, South Dakota and Idaho. I quit riding in 2007 and at that time we rebuilt the engine, trans, tcase and rear end. Engine was hot tanked, xrayed and magna fluxed and then bored .040 over. I dont remember the cam specs we put in, it was a comp cams 4x4 cam but I don't remember which one. Has a newer Holley carb put it on in 2012. Everything else we put back together using stock parts.

Specs:
1986 F250 Lariet extended cab long box with twin tanks.
Engine- 460 bored .040 over
Trans- T-19a, the granny gear monster.
Tcase- stock BW
Gear ratio- 3.55
Front axle- TTB w/newer hubs replaced 2009
Rear axle- Stock full float sterling
Tires and rims- 315/65r16 ATs with nice alunimum chrome rims and full size spare on steel rim.
Emissions tag- the factory emissions tag is non-catalytic so they can not make you have a cat on this truck.

Extras-
Spare complete sterling rear w/4.10 gears, front ttb 4.10 gears with Lincoln locked carrier and I think I have an open carrier with 4.10s too, 3" lift (2" springs and 1" blocks front, blocks rear, all the drop brackets for the front, shocks, missing the u bolts cause I had to cut them to get this lift pulled), entire front clip and doors from a 92 f250 with doors and lights, I was going to do a narrowed front clip and half doors with them but never did it, Im sure there is more stuff too. Has brand new cap, rotor, wires and plugs.

Bad stuff now-
I have used this truck, it isnt a show truck. It IS NOT rusted out or trashed though. The only rust on this truck is in the bed. The bed is damaged, I was hit twice on the drivers side(both cars were totaled and I drove away with a broken hub cap). I also slid in snow and ice and high centered on a rock that crumpled the bed right behind the cab on the drivers side. I was parked on the road and someone clipped tje drivers side leaving a small line from the tail to the nose at mirror height. Text me with any questions and later I can get pictures.

Ran all Amsoil fluids in this rig. The engine is running castrol conventional oil now because my ex-wife put that in while I was deployed and I stored it with 20-50 so stuff wouldnt leak.

Price-
$2,500obo and open to trades.
 
I hate to sell her, she has been my go to rig when it is cold(heater works awesome!!) Or bad weather. She fires right up. With chains on all 4 tires it sounds like a tank but doesnt get stuck. The front fuel tank pump is new last year also.
 
I cant post any but I can text some. I posted my number in the first post. It is 208-608-0379 though. I woulf be willing to sell any of the spare parts or anything else. Has a clean and clear title in hand.
 
I texted you 2 photos. I will get more pictures tomorrow of it, anything specific anyone wants pic wise? Thank you very much. I need to sell this truck now so price is OBO, my wife is in the Hospital and daycare costs me $200 a week.

I have an update on condition, the Master Cylinder is Leaking and brakes are fading now. I have a New MC for it but haven't been able to put it on playing super dad. I also forgot to mention that I don't have a key for it, I don't lock it(locks do work) and the tumbler on the column turns over and starts it. There is no damage to the column or anything, the locking pin in the tumbler just broke one day years ago. I have a key but it is in a box.
 
first picture is of 5,300lbs of inert rounds in the bed to show squat, it did squat a little but not too much. Still was able to hook a 10,000lb trailer up and haul it at 70mph with no problems. The 2nd picture is a little obvious, my trailer had stuff on it so I put my cj-7 on the bed(made a wood structure to put most of the weight on the gooseneck plate and tool box.*Disclaimer- I didn't drive around with it on there, just pulled it in and out of the shop like that.
 
Bump and major price drop. Asking $1500 OBO, (make an offer)now but no longer comes with the extra front end and I don't have have the Lincoln locked 4.10 gears down here yet(I will after Christmas though). Still open to trades but I need some cash.
 
I also forgot to mention the brakes all work now, the new pads and master cylinder are in. Brand-new tumbler and door lock cylinders with keys. Installing a new dimmer switch too.
 
I replied to your PM as well, Are there any specific pictures you want? Miles wise I will have to see if I can find the book with the specs and maintenance records to give you exact numbers. I know it has made 6 trips from Boise, ID-Sidney, NE since the rebuild as well as 6-7 200 mile hunting trips each year since the rebuild but those stopped in 2011 when the carb went bad, why it got a new one in 2012. Other than that I drove it on crappy weather days or to pull a buddy out from time to time. It is a manual 4-speed T19a so it has the super low granny first gear. This truck is parked in my storage lot out in Dugway. Just a reminder the spare front clip isn't included with this truck anymore. Any parts or pieces I find that go to or are for this truck I will contact whoever buys this to get them to them. I don't have anymore of this generation of truck and don't plan to get another one. I'm over loaded on the amount of rigs I have as it is.
