1994 F160 inline 6. Shoud I rebuild or replace?
 

Hi all F150 experts... I have a 94 F150 with 290k miles. I can feel auto transmission starting to go. Not sure how long the engine will last either.

Would you rebuild moter and trans or replace?

I have always wondered if they make the same inline 6 motor for this truck? I love this motor.


Can you please let me know my options. Thank you :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

It all depends on what your future plans are for your truck. Do you plan on keeping it for a long, long time? Or just a few years then trade to a newer truck?

290,000 is good service. Personally I'd shop for a low mileage 4.9 to stuff in there.
Unless you're planning to go through the truck from one end to the other you could get into the position where you've got a brand new engine and transmission in a truck that's already gone further than it was ever really designed to go.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.... but there are a lot of other things on the truck that have done their job a lot of times and other things may start to go.
