Ford F-350 Pickup 7.3 Dually

Ford F-350 1990 Description

Hello in this auction I am selling a good running 1990 FORD F-350 XLT LARIAT 5 SPEED EXTENDED CAB DUALLY PICKUP TRUCK. I purchased this truck 3years ago and it has been very dependable. It starts right up with a little smoke that goes away ( I believe this must be one of the glow plugs) I replaced them all about a year ago but I think one must have went bad. But anyway I have also put in a starter from autozone about 6 months ago and 2 brand new high cranking amp batterys with plenty of reserve power. The ignition switch started binding up a year ago which I heard is common on these fords and I removed the steering column out of the vehicle and installed new linkage and a new ignition switch. It works great but the column shaft extension at the bottom of the column(the piece that connects to the steering gear and the shaft) developed a little play. It needs a new extension piece but I have driven it for the last year and it hasn't bothered me. The steering is all in good shape otherwise as I have had the whole front end aligned and checked out by an alignment shop. I also installed 2 brand new 10 ply tires on the front when I got the alignment less than 5 months ago. I have also tried to fix the power door locks by installing new actuators but they keep popping off the linkage, so the truck has manual locks. Ihave also been told by a mechanic that the rear drum brake hardware sometimes binds up which he told me is common on these fords. The brakes are good but the hardware kit needs to be installed to make it perfect. Another big item that I did with this truck is changed the exhaust system to a high performance stainless steel 4" system which was not cheap over $800. The sound of the truck is nice with this system allowing the engine to breath better and gaining more horse power. The truck is all original with absolutely no rust on the undercarriage and 2 tiny spots that just started in the lower fenders. When the mechanic was installing my exhaust system he commented on how clean the underbody was and told me he had a ford 15 years newer that was all rusted. The only other thingthat I want to mention is a vibration in the frontat highway speeds. I took the truck back to the place that I purchased the tires from and they rebalanced both front wheels and told me that the right side rim is slightly bent.This balancing improved the vibrating a lot but not 100%.There is also aspare tire under the bed of the truck that might have never been used; it looks good. Cosmeticaly the interior is very decent with nice comfortable seats, no cracks in the dash, non sagging headliner and a good working heating and air conditioning system. Almost forgot, the knob for the wiper broke but you can still turn it and there is only one speed with the wiper and I have removed the radio which is in the center console. The outside body of the truck has those 2 little rust spots and one tiny dentunder the right rear tail light. Also the passenger mirror portion of the passenger door is slightly creased(can hardly notice) from I think somebody hitting the mirror. And lastly the paint is faded with minor blemishes. Bottom line I LOVE THIS FORD and I hate to part with it but I am older now and have just purchased a much smaller pickup for my needs. So I don't need this big truck anymore. Good luck bidding and the winner will receive a nice running truck that I believe can drive anywhere. AND THIS IS A PICK UP ONLY AUCTION, THANK YOU FOR LOOKING. I WILL INCLUDE MORE PICTURES TOMMOROW.
