GCWR for '96 PSD ??

I have a 96 F-250 HD 4x4 PSD and am trying to figure out how much I can tow. I have a 1996 F-series owners manual, but it doesn't include info for the diesel. The similar (supercab, 4x4) F-250 with the 460 and 4.10 rearend is rated for 10,400 lbs trailer weight and a GCWR of 16,000 lbs. Another source lists 1997 F-250s with the PSD as rated to tow 14,000 lbs. Where does my truck fit into the scheme of things?

What cab is it and what trans and gears? My 97 PSD Auto CC 4x4 4.10 gears will pull 13400 lbs by the owners manual. Yours should be close to that. Hotrod1783

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 08-Nov-02 AT 02:31 PM (EST)]Thanks for the answer. It's got the 5 speed manual, 4x4, SuperCab, HD F-250 with the 7.3L PSD, 4.10 rear end.

Probably the same as a '97:

But maybe close to a similarly-equipped '99:
