Opinions on this? 86 6.9L

Hey guys. Bullnose fords are my fave generation. My dream truck is this specific one I’ve found on marketplace. About a 2hr one way drive. 1986 F350 Crew cab swd w/ the 6.9Ll IDI. This also happens to be a manual and a 4x4.
When I go out to look at it what are some things I should be looking for that would be a deal breaker?
They are asking 4,500$ for it. 80k on dash shown to have rolled over.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Parking Brake Help

I have a 99 ford ranger with the M5R1 (5 speed manual) so it’s got a parking brake i put on to keep the truck from rolling.
Last night I got home, put the parking brake on like normal and the cable in it snapped.
Has anyone had to deal with this? If so any tips/tricks to help the repair go by faster would help tremendously
Thanks in advance

Loss of power after 70

I have an 06 Honda shadow 1100
I can fill throttle up to 70, after 70 anything more than a light acceleration she looses power.
Does anyone know what could possibly be going on?

Hey all, I’m in need of help

This is my 99 ford ranger, she’s 2wd and coil overs (relevant) I’m looking to lift her about 3inches with a level, I also need to redo some of my suspension, like my control arms.
Does anyone have a company they prefer? I’d need to purchase shocks as well. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Suspension parts

This is my 99 ford ranger. Im wanting to lift it about 3 inches, but I might as well replace some of the blown suspension components while im there.
It is the coil over style.
Should I get new coilovers, or just shocks?
Where should I get my shocks from, and what type?
I also need to get control arms?
Where would be the best place to buy all these that would cost only up to a grand.

So, I had a wonderful day Friday May 1st.
I rode the bike to school in the morning. Started it perfectly, like she did every day this week, at 6am. I get out of class at 9:30 and she then won’t start. No clicking of the starter, no turn over at all.
I don’t want to commit to doing a starter if it isn’t a starter.
Where should I begin?
Video was taken after I got home with it.

This is my shadow. It’s an 1100 sprit

I’m looking for engine guards for highway pegs and fairing. Ones that don’t look tacky.

Anything that doesn’t break the bank would be extremely helpful.
