Colorado 1970 F250 4x4

Post by Madman »

Hi everyone,
Kevin here from Golden, Colorado! I have overhauled 2 1967-1972 Ford pickups, all 4x4's, and finally got my hands on another project, a 1970 F250 4x4 Custom. When I was a kid, my Dad had factory ordered a 1970 F250 4x4 Sport Custom, and I have always wanted one for sentimental reasons...now I got one! I'd love to hear from anyone in or out of state, and wouldn't mind finding folks in my area so we may be able to combine resources.

And if anyone has a parts number list, give me a shout!

Pretty much anything! But right now I am rebuilding the front steering knuckle, and have identified the parts on the exploded view drawing, bearing and race 3123 and 3126 I believe, but many of the parts stores can only guess, or don't show up. Prefer to have solid part numbers before I order anything.
