Hi all, What is the rated towing capacity for an 02 lightning according to your owners manual? Also please advise the stock rear gear ratio as well. Thanks for your help.

I've been pulling my hair out trying to find out why my 02 Harley edition is limited to about half the tow capacity as a standard super crew with the same drive train whith the obvious exception of the engine and wheel/tire combo! Comparing a 02L tow capacity to a 02 std cab F-150 with a 5.4 and same gear ratio should help solve the puzzle.

My hunch is it's the supercharger. More boost=more potential for detonation.

 

5000LBS. 3.73 rear end of course. The decrease i believe is because of the suspension.
