2006 Ford Low Cab Forward

The 2006 Ford Low Cab Forward (LCF) is a Class 4 and 5 commercial truck designed for efficiency and versatility in various working environments. It is powered by a 4.5-liter V6 Power Stroke Turbo Diesel engine, which generates 200 horsepower and 440 lb-ft of torque, ensuring robust performance for hauling and towing tasks. The engine is mated to a Torqshift 5-speed automatic transmission that offers overdrive and optional PTO (Power Take-Off) capabilities. This model features a rear-wheel drive configuration with a single-reduction rear axle, providing stability under load. The cab design is derived from the Mazda J29 Trader Cab, while offering high-back driver and passenger seating with an additional center seat. The suspension includes an I-Beam taper-leaf front setup and a parallel leaf rear configuration, complemented by a hydro boost braking system with 3-channel ABS. Notably, the LCF stands out for its maneuverability with a tight turning radius and the convenience of a tilting cab for easy access to the powertrain.
