1987 Ford F-150 XLT Lariat SuperCab 4x2 8-foot Styleside box — 4.9-liter EFI inline-six


Ford's 1987 F-Series specification and payload matrices list this F-150 SuperCab 4x2 8-foot Styleside box, while its trim table limits XLT Lariat to Styleside bodies. The same specification matrix lists the 4.9-liter EFI inline-six plus manual and automatic transmission choices for this cab and drivetrain. Because it does not cross-tab each individual gearbox to every engine, this page preserves the verified transmission category without inventing a specific gearbox pairing.
