1992 Ford F-150 Xl Description

Didn’t ever plan on selling this truck. I’ve had it for eight years, put a lot of work into it, and have only put around 20k on it in that time. Perfect combo of the big 4.9L straight six with a 5 speed manual and 4x4 with manual t-case and manual locking hubs. 160k miles and a Clean title in hand. Runs/drives well and the 4x4 is excellent. Short wheel base with a husky diamond plate truck box with matching bed caps. Power options with tow package & brake light wiring. I’ve replaced many, many parts as I planned on keeping it forever. With a baby now, would prefer a truck with a back seat.

Here is some of what has been done: clutch, flywheel, slave & master cylinders, pressure plate, throw out bearing; fuel pump & filter; full ignition system including the entire distributor (had common pip sensor code) plus cap, rotor, coil, wires, plugs and a timing bump to 11*; full front and rear brake jobs including front discs and new hardware for rear drums. Every U joint I could locate under the chassis has been replaced. Magnaflow xl exhaust (on the quiet side). Alternator, water pump, power steering pump & reservoir, starter, throttle body, and various electronics like the pcm, icm, IAC, full EGR system, tps, starter relay, battery, coolant temp sensor, o2 sensors, etc. Put F250 springs & new shocks on the front and it lifted it more than expected (2.5”), so I added 1” blocks in the rear too. American racing 15” multi hole wheels with 32” BFG tires: two on rear are new old stock with maybe 200 miles on them, front are maybe 50%. Will include a 5th (tire only) as well. Alpine stereo w. Usb, JL components, kenwood 6x9s in boxes behind seats, redone interior with wood grain vinyl trim. More that I can’t remember, I’m sure!

What it still needs:

PAINT! It looks good and gets lots of compliments, but it needs paint badly. Clear coat peeling in spots, faded hood, roof is almost bare metal at this point.

Has factory Ac but needs to be converted. Ran it with an old can of r12 for a year or so but hasn’t worked since (compressor clutch has been replaced and still engages).

Idles high. Still throws EGR code off and on, despite full egr replacement. Just had a great mechanic check it out and the fuel trims look great; He suggested leaving it as-is. Still idles at 1k warmed up and sometimes raises idle between shifts.

Fl truck, but 26 years old and some spots of rust. Front bumper has a spot in the middle under the plate, the cowl beneath the windshield is shot. Small metal trim pieces by the windows, superficial spots on the bed (needs a liner really). Undercarriage has some spots on the frame and driveline. But again, those are superficial and everything is solid.

A couple small annoyances: the driver's side power window needs a finger assist. Passenger's side door handle works from the outside, but not the inside. Tailgate handle was sticky too, but just replaced the complete mechanism.

She is a classic truck with a great stance and a classic, indestructible drivetrain. Even at this age, it is worth keeping her going as she is a classic! Hoping to find her a new home with someone who appreciates her and will keep her going!
