1997 Ford F-350 XLT Crew Cab LB 4WD

This 1997 Ford F-350 XLT Crew Cab Long Bed is a well-kept example of the final-year OBS Ford platform, powered by the 7.3L Power Stroke turbo diesel V8 paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission (E4OD) and 4-wheel drive. Known for its durability, pre-emissions simplicity, and long-term reliability, the 7.3L remains one of the most respected diesel engines produced, making trucks like this increasingly desirable.Finished in a two-tone Oxford White over Toreador Red Metallic with a gray interior, this truck presents exceptionally well and retains a clean, classic appearance. The stance has been subtly improved with a 2-inch reverse shackle kit, upgraded rear leaf springs, and BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A tires (315/75R16), while upgraded automatic 4x4 front hubs add functional convenience and usability.The interior is in excellent condition, showing minimal wear and maintaining its original XLT trim. All major features and controls function as expected, and the cabin reflects careful ownership throughout.Mechanically, the truck runs and drives strong with smooth power delivery. Recent service includes new Bilstein 4600 series shocks, a front steering stabilizer, alignment, a coolant system flush, and fresh oil and filter service. The brake system has been refreshed with new pads, rotors, rear drums, and updated booster components. Fuel system service includes a new filter, pump, transfer pump, and module seal, along with a replaced vacuum pump. Additional work includes two new batteries, repacked wheel bearings, and steering component updates including tie rods and rack and pinion.Exterior condition is excellent overall, with no notable flaws reported and a clean, straight body that presents well both up close and at a distance.A clean, well-maintained OBS F-350 that combines proven 7.3L Power Stroke reliability with thoughtful upgrades and extensive recent serviceready for continued use or addition to a collection.Trucks like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find in this condition and configuration.
