Question is in the title. I'm looking for the spring rating on my '86 DRW, it has overload springs. What is the rear leaf pack's weight rating?

 

3225lbs if it's a pickup. 4500lbs if it's a chassis/cab truck.

 

it just occurred to me that I’m not sure if this is a pickup or chassis/cab. It’s a 4WD DRW, and I’ve been told that you could only get bullnose DRW’s in 4WD configuration if you ordered them as a chassis/cab. Is there a code somewhere on the truck that would tell me?

the reason I’m not sure is due to it having a pickup bed on it. I know you can put a pickup bed on a chassis/cab, so this muddies the waters for me.

 

You can't put a pickup bed on a chassis cab truck unless you heavily modify it to fit. And then your wheels would be tucked inside the wheel wells noticeably in the rear.

Look at the 4th digit on the vin. If it's a K, it's a chassis cab. If it's a J, it's a pickup. You could have a 2wd dually pickup that someone has converted to 4wd with a chassis cab front axle. Or you could have a f350 single rear wheel pickup that someone put a dually axle and bed underneath, and put the Ford adapters on the front for the dually wheels. People do it all the time.

I will attach a file that has some numbers on it.
