Payload

Dose my truck have a gvw of 6,150 pounds or 6,300 pounds.The code chart says truck Code #141 means 6,300 pounds,but my plate says 6,150.Which one is right.Reason is the codes are for a 78 so I guess my question is do these codes work for a 77.Also my axle code is H2 which means 3,750 pound capacity right.I just want to make sure so I don't over estimate the payload capacity.Its a 77 Ford F150 4x4.

Thanks

H2 is a 3.50 limited slip Ford 9" rear axle. That's from '79, don't know if it's valid for '77. And yes, it's 3750lb.

Same goes for GVW code. Years may be different. In 78-79, F141 = 6300. Where did it say F141 and 6150?

I'll go ahead and use the gvwr of 6150 since I know thats a valid figure for 1977.
