I'm the new and second owner of a hard-run '85 F250 6.9 IDI. My wife and I came on it fortuitously, but we figured "Why not?" We needed a work truck for the property, and probably my business, too.
So far this rig needs front brakes, got a leak in the front differential, leak in the pan gasket (hopefully not the main seals), there's an intermittent squeak in the release bearing, and this week I discovered the IP needs to be replaced/rebuilt (heat soak, won't start). Once I get it roadworthy I'm thinking tires, lumber rack, and a HD front bumper.
Thanks to all for the OB forum. Looks like a good place to be...
