it's a 2004 F-250 4x4 super duty FX4 reg cab any way to tell for sure if it has snow plow prep already?

 

[StoneDevil]

did the seller have the original sticker? I'm not sure but the numbers in the VIN might point u in that direction

no i didnt get the original sticker

 

[StoneDevil]

well look at your door sticker what is the GVWR FGVWR AND RGVWR

gvwr is 8800 lbs but i dont think that has anything to do with weather or not you have a snow plow prep does it?

 

[StoneDevil]

well the front rating would be higher in the plow prep compared to the non plow and do u have a trans cooler on it

 

[Sydenstricker Landscaping]

It probably does not, because I beleive on the 250 SD with the plow prep, the GVWR is 9200 lbs, which would include the beefier front end

 

[DAVID1963]

Ok I JUST THOUGHT IT MIGHT SINCE IT HAS A TRANS COOLER AND A FACTORY INSTALLED TRANSMISSION TEMP GAUGE AND ALSO MY BOSS V 8.2 PLOW HARDLY LOWERS MY FRONT SUSPENSION AT ALL,YOU CAN BARELY NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE. SORRY ABOUT YELLING I JUST NOTICED THE CAPS!!

 

[StoneDevil]

even if it isnt the one with plow prep i would still put timbrens on just to help

what in the world that kinda of a waste of money. jmo thou it may have the tranny cooler because it has a tow package

Look at the sticker on the door under the "SPRINGS" the front should be "X" and I think the rear is "A". And they should be leafs(front). The trans cooler and trans temp gauge I think are also part of the "plow" package.

Trans cooler and temp gauge are standard on all superduty diesels. X code on the door tag is the plow spring package or heavy Service package. The only other difference is the alt and even that is marginal.
I would upgrade to a DB electric alternator and High outpu fuse Do not add the HO alt without the fuse kit or you will damage the factory wiring.

I thought that the code X was for coil springs, not leaf? I had an extra leaf added to the front of my truck since I have the 6.0L and it is so much better then tibrens. $250 installed for the front.

Go to any dealer and have them look up the VIN #'s. That should give you all the info that you would need.

 

[KATTRANSPORT]

Post the VIN and I can tell you if it has it.
