I thought mine was beforehand but I guess not. I have D-60s front and rear, 4:10s posi out back, the 8,400GVW tag and the heavy duty springs up front. It does not have marker lights (or holes suggesting there were) and single shocks up front.

Could they come with single shock option?

There were no dual shocks on any F-250 4x4, only the Bronco's and 1/2 tons got duals.

No clearance lights means no Sno-Fighter package unless the cab has been swapped.
