hey im new here i just got a 5.4l super cab and was wondering what the 7700 on the back badge stands for.
thanks

 

You have a fairly limited edition truck. For the first two years (1997 & 1998) it was called an F-250 Light Duty. It wasn't quite as heavy duty as a Heavy Duty (now Super Duty) F-250 Ford truck, but it was pretty good. It's now just called the F-150 7700 package. Basically, it's a heavy duty half ton truck. As I recall, the package included heavier duty springs, axles, 7 lug wheels, a beefier transmission (in the early years) and several other upgrades that went with that stuff. They're great trucks and you'll probably love it. Enjoy!

 

thank you so much, i have the 2003 so im guessing it has the same or similar upgrades. i really do love my truck.

 

Yep, you have the heavy duty half ton. They use the 4R100 tranny and have a 10.25" semi-floating rear end. Very nice sturdy F-150.

 

Kinda kills your choices on rims though. Nothin else uses 7 lugs.

yeah thats the first thing i thought of when i read 7 lug wheels. but im not ready for rims just yet or at all, i havent decided yet, but if i really want them dont they make adapters for that?
