HD or LD?
I have a 1992 F-250 and I am wondering if mine is the light duty or heavy duty version.
It does have 8 bolts to hold the tires on which makes me believe that it is the HD version?
What other things can I look at to see what version my truck is?
My truck has the 351w, 5 speed manual (unsure which one) and it is an XLT package.
If it is the HD, how much is it rated to pull?
I am looking at getting a set of Warn Locking hubs and I need to know which version my truck is.
Thanks!

It's an HD if the door plaque says GVWR 8800, 8600 for the reg cab, also it should have the LT235/85R-16E tires on her. Max recomended towing with the 460 engine, and gearing being a big factor, is 10,000 lbs, 12,500 lbs with a fifth wheel. So I quess you would be somewhere below 7000 depending on gear ratio with your engine.

In addition to looking at the GVWR, look at the rear axle. If it's a heavy duty then the hub will stick out about five inches from the wheel opening.
Also you need to pick the correct hubs for your front axle. It has nothing to do with whether you have a HD or a LD. If your truck has an extended cab then you need the larger Dana 50 hub.
