I was just wondering if there was any difference in a 1997 ford f150, and a 1999 ford f150 both with the Triton 5.4L. I was looking for differences specifically in the computer, because i was looking to buy a tuner for my 1997 f150, and i found one i want but it's for a 1999 f150.

the difference may be in the wiring mostly as stuff is replaced due to suppliers and it's routed differently

So would a tuner for a 1999 f150 work for my 1997 f150?

because most mechanics including myself don't deal with that stuff I can't give you a definitive answer. I'd call the tuner company that you are thinkin g of getting one from. I'm sure they would know.
