Default Wiring diagrams

These are from a 1994, for some reason my auto scource didnt have 89-92 wiring diagrams for that truck. But this should be close.

fords came with 40s 60s and 80s no 50s... And its a whole new world to get a straight axle into a twin i beam bracket setup... ID like one in my lfted 94 but its alot of hassle. You may be lucky it could be a heavyduty f250 with solid straight axle!

i just went and looked at it and took some measurements
it should raise the front about 6 inches
it should fit perfect also
i also found out that it does have a dana 50 and a 10.25 with 373 gears
the u joints are also the same on both my truck and the 250
