my very own hell
Nice truck, but what the heck is a "4-speed manual transmission with overdrive" - a ZF5? Cause it sure as heck ain't gonna be an SROD, which is the only true 4-speed OD bolt-action that was used in a Ford truck (that I'm aware of at least)... I never understood why folks say it like that - I've had people argue with me that the E4OD is nota 4-speed but a 3-speed with OD, as if the OD ain't a gear and don't count in the total number of gears...

X2, overdrive is very mis-understood for some reason. I don't know why so many people don't consider it a 'gear'. I think dodge or someone labled it a 5 instead of a white circle, and people don't get as confused cookoo

looks like a tight rig for the money. Dont see many Crew can 4wd's around here that arent beat up base model work trucks, I would investigate the engine situation though and make sure the swap was done right especially if it was an IDI to PSD swap.

Ford didn't do a factory dually 4x4 pickup until the '99 superdutys. If you wanted a dually 4x4 pickup you had to chop down the frame on a chassis cab and bolt on a bed, or convert a SRW truck to be a dually.

True but fully true.

You could get a 4wd dually in a reg cab and any cab configuration in a cab-n-chassis. but Supercabs and crew cabs were not offered in a 4wd dually pick-up
