I'm about the same way. We have a pin weight of about 4000 as well. We don't skimp when it comes to loading the trailer, if we think we'll use it we take it along. I figure between the computers,...

In my opinion, you're going to be better off. If you read some of my other posts you'll read that I had a 2011 F350 4x4 SRW that I loved. But I ended up getting a 2012 F350 4x4 dually that pulls the...

It's my understanding that the frame of the F250 is the same as the F350 so your frame should be ok. Since you've added the air bags the springs are also being supported. In my opinion the real...

If I'm not mistaken the rear axle on the F250 and F350 are the same, it's the springs that change as well as the torsion bar. If this is the case you have a 7000 lb axle under your truck. If you have...

I think you're right. My wife loved the ride of the F450 because it seemed more solid during the demo ride. I think they have a thicker torsion bars.

I understand your problem, I started out with a 2011 f350 SRW 4x4 which I loved but after I ordered the RL loaded up, it was too heavy for the truck. I was getting screwed over by all of the local...
