Rancho 4" lift kit, Excludes 8200lb GVW?

I am looking at getting this 4" lift kit but found that it excludes the 8200lb GVW?

What is this all about? The blocks are different? Something with the Ubolts?


I dont even know if I have the 8200lb GVW setup with my truck but this just seemed odd.

Is the 8200lb GVW the larger rear axle? I think I have the 9.75 now.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As far as I know, the 8200 GVWR F150s are 7 lug. I could be off on that though. Otherwise I have no idea what else would be different on the truck other than bearing/hub units.

You don't have it.

HEAVY DUTY PAYLOAD PKG -inc: 8200# GVWR, 2640# maximum payload, LT245/70R17D all-terrain BSW tires, high capacity 7-lug steel wheels, heavy-duty shock absorbers & frame, 72 amp battery, spring, radiator & auxiliary transmission oil cooler upgrades, 10.25" gear set, 4.10 axle ratio

I didn't even know you could get a 10.25" in the F150. So I'm guessing it wouldn't be compatible due to u-bolts or something.
