Description

Ford F250 xlt with 6,000 miles since complete restoration. Original wheels with new tires. For just a little extra punch a 428 Cobra Jet was placed under the hood. Engine is probably worth more than the pickup itself. Automatic tranny.

The term 'Highboy' has been used to refer to 1967-1977.5 Ford F-250's, lthough 'Highboy' wasn't actually a Ford term.

The term 'Highboy' was more of a nickname that came about when Ford switched to a negative arch leaf spring for the 1977.5 model, aking it 4-inches lower than the 1977 model.

For a Ford truck to be considered a 'Highboy', t should meet the following criteria:

- 1967-1977.5 Ford F-250 4x4

- Divorced Transfer Case (Not attached to the transmission)

- A Highboy will have (3) driveshafts

- The front spring pack will have a noticeable arch (1977.5 and later are flat)

- Rear springs are 2-1/4" wide. 1977.5 and later non-Highboy's will have 3-inch wide rear leafs.

Front axle choices in the Highboy were either the 8-lug Dana 44 or the low pinion Dana 60.

F-150's built during that time are NOT considered a 'Highboy'. The F-250's built from 1977.5 and later are referred to as a 'Lowboy' because they sit lower than the 1977.
