[QUOTE="OHJEEZE, post: 4243239, member: 47878"] I hope you have better luck with yours! In 2012 I bought a 96 f150. 300 6, 5 speed manual, 4x4, dual gas tanks and air conditioning, and I think it has a posi rear. If I remember right less than 75,000 miles on it. It is retired now, it never made it to 100,000 miles. Front coil springs broke Front rear axle spring mounts rotted off. Gas tanks rotted. One of the filler necks rusted through. Transfercase shifter broke Front axle u-joints sounded like the needles were slightly missing when first try of the 4x4 in a turn. Brake lines burst. The design of the steel wheels it had held water in a area behind where the spokes was welded on and developed holes that then leaked air. I believe the upper coil spring mounts, and rear leaf spring mounts for the rear axle was changed before buying it. Had some computer problems we could never figure out. My worst truck ever. It is patiently awaiting me getting a fresh oxygen bottle and some spare time to cut the frame up under the cab and make a beater trailer from it. Then try to sell off the front half! [/QUOTE]
