I just bought a 2014 F150 screw with 3.5l ecoboost, It is missing the gvrw decal on the drivers door and I am trying to figure out the tow rating and Rear end gear ratio.
A little more info I bought this from the local Ford dealer and checked carfax which showed no issues. It is an XLT and has the factory brake controller which leads me to believe that it has the max tow pkg installed. it also has leather seats with the Ford my touch sync system. I also could not locate a tag on the differential.
I know it is enough to tow my 3000 lb travel trailer which my 2013 2.0l Escape could not do despite the 3500 lb tow rating.

Try this link with your VIN number....

Vehicle Lookup

 

That site had everything I needed to know all I need to do now is go to the ford towing document and cross reference. I found out that it has the heavy duty tow package but with a 3.15 non limited slip rear axle. The last was a disappointment. I love limited slips and turned down one with the e locking rear because my wife didn't like the way it rode. I may have to add an E-locker myself. That is better than a limited slip.
Thanks again that page is great.

 

I have one question, does heavy duty tow package mean the max tow package, or the regular tow package?

 

You are welcome sir.....glad I could help.

 

Sorry to step out of thread, but what happened to the VIN plate? Is this a salvage vehicle?

 

No evidence of it being a salvage vehicle, although I had my suspicions. I ran a carfax and title search after I discovered the missing door decal. It also had a door latch on the drivers side missing a bolt. It is also a certified pre owned by Ford. I do suspect the door was damaged some how even though there is no accident report. The Truck is very tight paint is almost flawless except in the bed. interior is like new.
If it is a salvaged vehicle nothing was reported to the DMV or insurance company and they did an excellent job of repair.

 

Unless I missed something, he never said the VIN plate was missing. He said the white sticker on the door post was not there, which gives info about GVWR, rear end codes, etc.....so is provided a link that will give info about a particular vehicle if you provide the VIN.

 

You do not have the Max Tow package with that axle ratio, but you should have a trans cooler and a one step up front swaybar.

 

The readout I got from ETIS H/D dual front shock absorbers, heavy duty rear shock absorbers Super engine cooling system, integrated brake control, with transmission oil cooler, 4l34 5310 SA left front coil, 4l34 5310 right fron coil, CL34-5560-A* rear leaf springs, heavy duty trailer towing less front and rear hooks.
On the dual front shocks, I only see one shock per side.
So far I am happy with it although all I have towed is my small boat and my utility trailer. Both towed much better than they did with my escape. I hooked up my 19' travel trailer just to check the brake controller and if the rear end of the truck sagged. I have some more questions about towing with this truck but will save them for a different thread.
Thanks for all of the help everyone!!!

My bad. I was referring to the federal sticker. I still think of the vin "sticker", as a plate.

 

No problem....I just try to help when I can!
