Ford Wheels On My CDT???

I just purchased a 2001 CDT and Im curious if these are dodge parts or not.

1. Are the wheels from a ford powerbroke?
2. Is that a ford bumper?
3. Do I have a dodge 2500 rear end?

Unless they are really old Ford wheels, new ones won't fit.

Looks like normal rear end and bumper to me.

Is your speedometer working?
Sensor on top of the rear pumpkin is the usual cause for the P 0500 and the brake lights always on.

Hope not, since it should be either a 70 or 80 depending on the transmission.

That's a Dana 70 rear end, and the bumper is a little different from the one on my '99 2500

If you have an automatic transmission, the speedo might still work,
as it gets it's signal from the sensor on the tranny as well as that one out back.

If you have a manual, then it's probably one of the sensors on the front, they only affect ABS, not speedo.

Or, could be the ABS fuse even.

Those look like ford hub caps. I have seen those on `16.5 inch rims though.

I am curious -- I only count seven lug nuts? I haven't paid any attention to 16.5 Ford hubcaps before, so that might be possible. Definitely not solid wheels for the truck. phox is right -- Ford went with a wierd Metric bolt pattern and pilot hole, against conventional wheel manufacture. Old ford wheels -- 8 lug -- should fit fine, but they have to be prior the metric debacle.

The hub caps are from a light duty F250. They were only made in 97 & 98 and had a Edit metric 7 lug pattern. Since your wheels are 8 lug, it's safe to assume your wheels are original, but the hub caps are definitly Ford.

im actually pretty sure thats a ford bumper
right where the lights go it has the ford emblem
I hope the bumper doesnt break down on me

the plastic on the sides does not fit and my brother has the same year of truck (except its a v6 gasser) and his is different in the center where the plate goes.
