For 1974, the F-Series became available in an extended cab for the first time. Dubbed as the "SuperCab", it offered the six-passenger seating of the crew cab in a slightly shorter length. For 1975, the F-150 was introduced; as part of an effort to circumvent upcoming emissions requirements, this truck was designed with a heavier maximum payload (2,275 lb (1,032 kg) when properly equipped) than the F-100. With the half-ton F-100 still in production, the new F-150 was referred to as the "heavy half-ton".
I don't know much about the old extended cabs.
I have only ever seen 2 4x4 versions, the first one I was too young and dumb to ask the owner about, he was a parts supplier for the shop I worked at, it was a short bed, I don't even remember if it was 1/2 or 3/4t.
I just bought this truck and the title says its a 1975 f250 . But know I am reading that they didnt make 4x4 models. I am so confused now. This truck has Dana 60s in the front and rear with closed knuckles in the front. Can anyone give me some guidance?

Grab the VIN number from the door tag (if it's still there) and run it against This chart to determine what the VIN says it is.
The grille is 78/79, so it's possible it was either a body swap or a 4wd conversion.

1973/76 F250 4WD & 1977 F250 4WD before serial number Y20,001 are called High Boys, have a divorced transfer case and in-cab fuel tank.
High Boys are Regular and Crew Cab Styleside/Flareside pickups, or Cab & Chassis (no "back of cab" equipment), but no Super Cab is a High Boy.
1977 F250 from serial number Y20,001 (not a High Boy) is the first F250 4WD Super Cab, has a married transfer case, no in-cab fuel tank.
