Hi guys, this is my first post here. I have a question, can anyone tell me how wide a stock f150 is from outside the tires? The reason I am asking is my sister is giving my son her F150 but there is something wrong with the motor. I have to get it on a trailer and I need to know how wide it is to see if it will fit on my trailer. Thanks in advance for any help and I will need more help from yall when I get it home. Thanks again del

 

should be the same as yours, to be safe just add 6 ins

 

My 2000 scab is 76" across at the tires, including the sidewall bulge.

 

Thanks guys, I will go get it this weekend and get work on it. thanks agin for yalls help del

 

do you know what is wrong with the motor?

 

hes actually swapping it out for a blown 450 for his 16 yr old son

 

No, I don't know what's wrong with motor. I hope there isn't too much wrong with it. My brother-in-law is known for not working on something when it stops working and letting it sit. I will know something more by the weekend. I will put a new battery and gas in it and see if it will turn over and go from there. It has a v6 in it. The body is perfect and it ran good the last time I saw it run. Hope it turns out good. thanks for the advise yall!

 

If it's a 97 or early 98 V-6, I'd bet it's hydrolocked.

 

How do I find out if it is hydrolocked and if it is, what do I do about it?

 

Before you put a battery and gas in it, try to turn it over with a wrench on the front crank pulley bolt. If it won't turn, it's hydrolocked and you replace the engine.
