Could be a few different things but two of the most common are a vacuum leak and/or a bad IAC (idle air control valve).

How high is the idle? Check Engine Light on?

I have a 93 with the 4.9L and a manual tranny and mine idles about 250-300 rpm high. I am still hunting the source of my problem though.

Check for codes, this thread explains how: https://www.f150forum.com/f10/how-retrieve-trouble-codes-obdi-10907/ Possible bad park/neutral switch which tells the computer when the truck is in park or neutral so it can lower the idle.
