<P> 1983 marked the final year of the F - 100 , making the F - 150 the lightest pickup available on the market . F - 100s and F - 150s were virtually identical with the exception of smaller brakes and a 5x4. 5 bolt pattern on the F - 100 axles , as opposed to 5x5. 5 on the F - 150 . F - 100s over a certain GVWR and / or without power brakes did use the F - 150 axles . Also , the 1980 -- 1983 F - 100 was never offered with four - wheel - drive . </P>
