2008 Job Numbers and Changes

Might want to check your build date on the door VIN sticker. Since the '08 SD really was introduced in '07...and FORD makes changes to the production of the '08 Model Year...and thus calls them Build #1, 2, or 3.
You can also look at your MSRP window sticker under "Options" for the "JOB #3 BUILD IDENTIFIER" as an example.
Hope this helps...

The reason for changing the job # is due to changes or improvements done. For example you hear about the front air dam. When the trucks were introduced they had a 2 inch air dam but as they received complaints on MPG they designed a 4 inch air dam that went in Job 2 trucks. Ford had issues with regens at idle so they modified the software to only regen above 30 mph for Job 3 trucks. These are just examples, there are many more updates. I will look up the ordering guide info and post it.

2008 Job Numbers and Changes
I will add this to the Tech Folder to help new users identify what Job number truck they have and the running changes that were made.
Try and keep it specific to changes made like the front air dam. If a owner wants to add a Job 2 item list the part number or even better an article with pictures.

Mine did not have it on the window sticker either. Look on the door jamb sticker. It has the build year and month. I was wondering you guys, what is different for 09? How much has changed from job 3 08's to the 09's?
#12
The vehicle will regen sitting at a stoplight if it hasn't been taken out of park.
#14
first is 1, then there are changes, fixes, new features, that becomes 2, and repeat..
for the 08 model year, the wiring for the tailgate camera didn't make it into Job 1 trucks.. but did on Job 2 and later.
etc..
