Coolant Type:
Ford Premium Gold Coolant (or equivalent meeting specification WSS-M97B51-A1)
Engine Oil Weight Gasoline:
Typically SAE 5W-20 or SAE 5W-30 (refer to owner's manual for specific engine variant)
Engine Oil Weight Diesel:
Typically SAE 15W-40 CJ-4 for diesel engines (refer to owner's manual for specific engine variant)
Diesel Engine Code:
6.0L Power Stroke often identified by VIN character 'P' or '6'
Gasoline V8 Engine Code:
5.4L Triton often identified by VIN character 'V' or '5'
Gasoline V10 Engine Code:
6.8L Triton often identified by VIN character 'S' or 'A'
Standard Transmission Gasoline:
5-speed manual (e.g., ZF S5-47)
Automatic Transmission Gasoline Diesel:
5R110W 'TorqShift' 5-speed automatic transmission
Transmission Fluid Type:
Mercon V for 5R110W automatic transmissions. Specific manual transmission fluid for manual gearboxes.
Wheelbase Range:
Varies significantly by F-250/F-350/F-450/F-550 configuration and cab/bed length. Typically ranges from 137 inches (Regular Cab, short box) up to 172 inches or more for Crew Cab long bed or chassis cab configurations.
Gvwr Range:
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating starts around 8,500 lbs for F-250 and can exceed 19,500 lbs for F-550 chassis cab models.
Curb Weight Range:
Highly variable based on configuration and powertrain, typically ranging from 5,500 lbs to over 8,500 lbs.
NHTSA Crash Test Ratings:
Generally performed well for its class during its era, but specific ratings should be verified for individual configurations. Frontal and side impact ratings are typically available.
Braking System:
Four-wheel disc brakes with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) standard. Larger rotors and higher performance brakes available on higher GVWR models.
Airbags:
