towing capabilities?

We are looking at buying a 91 f-150 4x4 ext cab Lariat, with long box (107,000 km's) its a 5 litre 302. It has no manuals, what would be the towing limit for this vehicle. I would like the weight in pounds if possible, I already know that it can not handle a fifth wheel, but we would like to know what size of travel trailer it could safely tow. Thanks

The type of transmission and rear end gear ratio affect the rating. Do you know what they are?
