They are all the same if you have a 99.5 and up unless you have the limited run 250's with the 150 body style.

I have never seen a lift labeled for the F-250 Light Duty.

As far as I know a '97-03 F-150 lift will work on it........I'd double check with the manufacturer of the lift and/or your supplier first.



Hope this helps.

It's a good truck, not as heavy duty as the Super Duty line of trucks, but wasn't built to be. I think it was made to be a little more truck than the F-150, but not quite as much as the F-250 Super Duty.
If I remember correctly they later sold it has the F-150 Heavy Duty, could be wrong though.
