Yes. The 360 also goes by 5.9. It was available in the 250 and 350.

Default looking at this truck

Looked at this truck I was asking.

Its a 89' w250 with the 360 block, my whole purpose of this truck is a farm truck. I wont be driving it a lot.

The truck is solid, the 4 four things that it will need are new ball joints, front brakes, and at low speeds the transmission sometimes slips(a727) but, is very strong otherwise. The last item is the inspection sticker, the guy cant get it inspected because the ball joints need replacing. But, the truck is solid. Has a trailer brake computer.

Under the hood the truck has a new reman. mopar computer. No check engine light while driving. He says $2800 but he will take less. Im going to be shooting with my in law whos a mechanic tomorrow but, from what I said does it sound like a truck for my farm? I cant say enough how soild that truck is.

whats the mileage? i paid 1500 for my strong d150 318 91 with just over 100,000 miles. I guess this one, being a three quarter ton with 4wd and the 360 makes it worth a bit more, but i still wouldnt give him over 2000 for it. ball joints are press fit on these so control arms have gotta come off
