i have a 1982 f250 with a 6.6 400 and c6 trans that is sitting on a frame that is rusted out but i also have a 1993 f250 with a 5.8 351. i was wondering if anyone knew if the 1982 f250 body and engine/tranny would fit on the 1993 f250 frame. i realize mounts will be different and i can handle that but i am more concerned about the body fitting and the drive line fitting. and if anyone had any tips on the 400 engine because i will be restoring the whole truck my self
#71 of 71 replace lock cylinder 78 f-150 by conniespaz Sep 24, 2009 (8:59 pm)
I'm trying to replace the key lock cylinder on my 78 F-150. The only problem is; the key won't turn to the accessories position so I can release the pin. I've tried WD40 (stupid idea) and a graphite dry lube to get the key to turn but it's still doesn't work, no matter how much I jiggle the key. Is there any other option available to me short of drilling out the cylinder or replacing the entire ignition?
