Trailer Special Questions

Hello, I've been looking here to find out about "Trailer Specials" And I've come to the conclusion my 78 Bronco Ranger XLT 351m with manual 4spd is one. It has quad shocks on the front, front & rear sway bars, large out reaching mirrors & a huge radiator However, I was reading a response by Ranger 429 and he says there's a light & heavy duty version of the "TS". So how do I know which one have. Thanks,

Someone mentioned the changes were very little, but yours seem to have some big upgrades, i would guess it's the HD version, if there is such thing... Anyway, why all that interest in finding this out?.

Well... I guess I just wanted to know for sure what I got my hands on & if this makes it more unique or not. But more importantly, I do plan to pull with this truck sometimes, I have a rebuilt 49 Ford 8n that I will pull on a trailer occansionally & I cut and haul ALOT of fire wood. Ranger 429 said (in 79 questions) the difference between light & heavy duty was 2000 or 6000 lbs. And if that's true, with that kind of difference this seems to me worth knowing. Thanks,
