Try here for towing capacities...
Click on the Towing Capacities link on the left side of the page...
As you can see, towing capacity is not an easy number to determine. You have to know things like rear end gear ratio, and what options (read: extra weight) which you have on your truck. This chart is a good start.

According to the literature I have "FMC 2002 RV and Trailer Towing Guide" tow behind capacity is 12,500 pounds, 5th wheel capacity is 13,700 reg cab, 13,400 SC and 13,100 crew.
Hope this helps.

I believe that if you have the PSD - 6.0L the tow capacity is 20,000. It is 13500 for the 5.4 with the 3.73 rear end and slightly higher with the 4.10 rear end.
The 7.3PSD had a tow capicity of 18000.
You can find all the information needed in a owners manual.
