Wide Track Front End

Just recently upgraded my 06 Amarillo F-250 to a 2015 F-350 Dually with the wide track front end option. What I'm wondering, is the wide track front end a F-450 front axle with different rotors and # of lugs, or a modified standard F-350 axle? Looking to get an alignment check and wondering if the specs are different for the differnt front ends.

Thanks

Buddy

The 2015 Ford Workshop DVD for alignment spes does not distinguish between normal F350 values and wide track F350.

Here are the alignment specs for F350 4x4 DRW and F450 4x4, DRW.

I've got a 2015 F350 dually. How do you tell if it has the widetrack front end? Mine seems to turn pretty tight (tighter than 2014 F350 SRW I had), but not sure how to tell if it has that option or not.

There probably others, but this things I know about

1) You have wide fender flares on the front
2) you the max tow package (check the window sticker if you have it, it's called the High Capacity trailer tow package
3) You have 4.30 rear gears with limited slip

Isn't the wide track the just Super D60 front housing with regular D60 parts? I thought the 450+ Super D60 got beefier components.

Either way, the width difference were talking shouldn't effect alignment with a solid axle.
