super duty chassis-cab

does the chassis cab have a different payload than the regular pickups? seems like i have more leaf springs than regular "bedded" trucks

You're right- the cab & chassis models are different than the pickups.

Thread moved to Superduty forum.

But yeah, the chassis-cab (an F450 perhaps?) would have heavier front springs for the increased payload.

I think the PSD has more springs in the front than the gas jobs.

Yes, the PSD is heavier than the gassers (everything else being equal), and has heavier front springs to deal with it.
