You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.85.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 21:48, 22 February 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

))((Short description|Eighth generation of the Ford F-Series trucks))
The '''eighth generation of the [[Ford F-Series]]''' is a line of pickup trucks and light- to medium-duty commercial trucks produced by [[Ford Motor Company|Ford]] from 1987 to 1991. While the 1980 cab and chassis was carried over with minor changes to the vent windows, interior trim mounting locations, and floor pan shape on the transmisson hump, the 1987 model was more streamlined, and maintenance items were made simpler. The exterior was facelifted with new composite headlamps - the first American truck to have them - as part of a more aerodynamic front end. Inside, the interior was given a complete redesign. Rear [[antilock brakes]] were now standard, the first pickup truck to boast this.((cn|date=April 2024)) For the first time, all models were produced with straight-sided Styleside beds; the Flareside bed was discontinued except for a small number of early 1987 models using leftover 1986 beds with new circular fenders. In October 1989, the taillights' white reverse light was decreased in size.

== Models ==
[[File:UHI DC5692.JPG|thumb|Ford F-350 [[U-Haul]] truck in [[Hampton, VA]].]]

Eighth-generation Ford F-Series models are:
* '''F-150''': 1/2 ton (6,250&nbsp;lb [[GVWR]] max)
* '''F-250''': light-duty 3/4 ton (7,700&nbsp;lb GVWR max)
* '''F-250HD''': 3/4 ton (8,800&nbsp;lb GVWR max)
* '''F-350''': 1 ton Class 2 or Class 3 truck (11,000&nbsp;lb GVWR max)
* '''F-Super Duty''': Class 4 truck (14,500&nbsp;lb GVWR max)<ref name=JM1>((cite magazine | ref = FO857 | magazine = Fleet Owner | title = The New Models for 1991: Mid-Range Trucks | date = July 1990 | publisher = FM Business Publications | volume = 85 | number = 7 | last = Mele | first = Jim | page = 70 ))</ref>

The new-for-1988 F-Super Duty was essentially a [[Truck classification#Class 4|Class 4 truck]] built as a chassis cab, with an aftermarket bed (specific to its future use) added after the truck was built. The F-Super Duty came with dual fuel tanks with a dash-mounted toggle switch to switch between each tank, while using only a single fuel gauge. It came with a [[Power take-off|PTO]] used to power attachments, such as winches or a dump bed, directly from the transmission. F-Super Duty models two-wheel-drive only, were rated at about ((convert|14500|lb|kg|0|abbr=on)) [[GVWR]], and came with either the standard 7.5&nbsp;L (460&nbsp;CID) gasoline V8 or the optional 7.3&nbsp;L (444&nbsp;CID) diesel V8. Other mechanical upgrades from the dual-rear-wheel F-350 included four-wheel disc brakes, 10-lug wheels, and a monobeam leaf-sprung front axle. The transmission was a five-speed manual or a three-speed automatic, with the four-speed electronically-controlled E4OD also offered beginning in 1990.<ref name=JM1/> There was also a stripped chassis available, offering a ((convert|16000|lb|kg|0|abbr=on)) GVWR on two wheelbases of ((convert|158|or|178|in|mm|0|abbr=on)) and the 7.3&nbsp;L diesel engine as the sole option.<ref name=JM1/> This model should not be confused with the later [[Ford Super Duty|Super Duty]] commercial line of trucks starting with the 1999 model year.

It was built from 1992 to 1995. The 1992 model carried over the MWM D229-4 and MWM TD229-4 engines from the previous generation. 1993 brought no notable changes. 1994 introduced a 4×4 model and a 2-door extended cab model marketed as "SuperCab." 1995 introduced the Ford 300 4.9-liter inline-six engine.

==Powertrain and chassis==
In a move to further update the F-Series engine lineup, the 4.9&nbsp;L inline-6 was converted to fuel injection for 1987. A year later, Ford became the first pickup truck manufacturer to sell a fully non-carbureted engine lineup as the 5.8&nbsp;L V8 and 7.5&nbsp;L V8 also gained multiport [[fuel injection]] (the 5.0&nbsp;L V8 had gained fuel injection as an option for 1985 and this was made standard in 1986). For 1988, the diesel V8 from International (Navistar) was enlarged to from 420 to 444 cubic inches (6.9 to 7.3 L); this allowed for an increase to ((convert|180|hp|abbr=on)) and ((convert|365|ft.lbf|N.m|abbr=on)) of torque.

While the dated 3-speed column-mounted manual transmission was discontinued, much of the rest of the transmission lineup carried over from the 1980–1986 trucks. In 1988, the five-speed ZF S5-42 replaced the Borg-Warner T19 in F-250 and F-350 models. For the F-150 and light-duty F-250, the heavier-duty Borg-Warner T18 4-speed manual remained available, while the Mazda-built [[Mazda M5OD transmission|M5OD]] 5-speed manual was added to the model lineup for models equipped with the 4.9&nbsp;L inline-6 and 5.0&nbsp;L V8.

Four-wheel-drive improvements included the standardization of automatic locking hubs in 1989 and the availability of "Touch Drive" pushbutton activation, which had previously been available on the Bronco.

From 1980 through 1996, Ford offered a four-wheel-drive swing arm independent front suspension called [[Twin-Traction Beam]] (TTB). Based on its two-wheel-drive Twin-I-Beam suspension from 1965, Ford mounted a [[Dana 44]] or [[Dana 50]] differential in the driver-side front axle beam and transmitted torque to the passenger-side wheel with a U-jointed axleshaft. TTB coil springs were still used on the F-150, while the four-wheel-drive F-250 and F-350 got leaf springs. The F-250 received TTB [[Dana 50]] axles, and the F-350 a solid [[Dana 60]] axle.
