According to this site the first ford 4x4 was in 1959 on a f250, not sure if that helps.
Ford Trucks History
But then when I found this site
http://www.therangerstation.com/reso...ory_of_4x4.htm
it states: The 1959 model year was the first time Ford built light truck 4x4s in-house. Up to that point, they were farmed out to Marmon-Herrington (M-H) for conversion using a Dana 44 closed knuckle front axle.
So maybe this was a Marmon- Herrington conversion?Last edited by stovens; 08-17-2013 at 11:15 AM.

I check in everyday and some are better than others. I don't think Brent has anything to do with the forum anymore, but I'm not sure. Hopefully as time moves on the forum will get better.
Where is everybody?
