Hey guys Im new here so bare with me! I own a landscape company and needed a 2nd truck for the growing fleet! I have always heard about the idi reliability, cheap price, and cheap parts so I decided to pick up a 1994 F450 with the 7.3 turbo. The truck has a working dump bed which was probably the selling point for me! Ok enough talk, heres the questions... The fenders, rockers, and cab corners are rotting pretty bad. Where is the best place to get replacement metal and are the cabs on a 450 the same as the 250/350? Another thing, this thing will not get out of its own way! The truck does have 185,000 miles and its probably safe to say the injectors and injection pump have never been replaced. Will a fresh set bring this truck back to life? I need the thing to pull a trailer while being loaded in the dump bed for some jobs. The way it is now, theres no way I would even try! What can I do to wake this thing up. I have about $2500 to spend between the replacement metal, paint, and engine fix up. Let me here suggestions! Thanks!
