A coworker of mine has a 2005 F350 XL extended cab, 4x4, with an 8ft bed. It has 240k miles and everything works great except for the HPFP just went out a few weeks ago. She is trying to get rid of it but wants $1500 for it. Would this be a good price? How difficult is it for me to replace the HPFP if I'm not in a hurry to get this thing up and running. The dealership wants $3k to fix it, but I think I can do it myself if I just take my time and find parts at the junkyard.

What do y'all think?

 

Id buy it for 1500, even if the dealer wants 3k to fix you could still turn around some profit, or just have a good work truck

 

Really I want something I can drive to work when there is inclement weather... I almost had a heart attack a few weeks ago when it hailed and my 2008 F250 King Ranch was sitting in the work parking lot.

 

If you don't buy it. Tell her I will for 2K

 

If it was closer to NY I'd buy it.

 

I can be there this weekend to get it.

 

$1500 is about like stealing it from her.

 

I'll buy it for $2,001

 

Looks like overwhelmingly the answer is I should get it. If I can find a place to put it while I tear it apart, I'll be grabbing it next week. If I can't get it, I'll be taking bids to her starting next week

 

Let me know. I might can do more depending on the rest of the truck. Shoot I you wanted to buy it then I would buy it from you. That way you can make 500 or just for being the middle man.

 

Why can't I ever find deals like this??

 

I was thinking the same thing Tyler.

 

Im also local and would love to buy it. I can have a hook there to pick it up asap

 

Stay out of this MOE. I called dibs first

 

I'll talk to her again tomorrow about it. If she decides they want more than 1500 for it, i'll let y'all get in touch with her... I really do want a good project truck and something I wouldn't care to drive to work when there are hail chances. After April 30 I am moving to a buddies house on 4 acres with a 40x40 shed, so I will have plenty of space to tear this thing apart.

Anyone have input on what is involved with the pump replacement? I can't spend another $3k at the dealership, but i'm pretty handy with a wrench and as long as I can take my time and don't need it ASAP, I don't mind getting dirty and tearing crap apart.
