Slick Era Dual Wheel F-250?

Post by chris401 »

When I shop at Advanced Auto Parts for my 1965 F-250 they ask me if it is dual rear wheels or single. Never thought much about it till I saw this thread on the Non FE Forum section.

Here are mid 80's F-250 bud wheel trucks, Crew Cab to single. I don't think you can see the pictures unless your logged in but they are legitimate front and rear 1 ton bud wheels. Was Ford offering a bud wheel F-250 back in the Slick Era?

Pretty sure the F350 was the smallest size to offer duals as an option

I'm not that old or knowledgeable but I have never seen an actual "factory" F250 dually truck. My vote would be NO factory dual F250.
