Yeah its pretty easy to search lets say Fords Fleet service spec pages that lists all the specs for rear axle sizes/spring capacities/brake specs/frames/wheel and tire sizes and a host of other tech data that shows the differences in the F series trucks.
Those that have done their research know what the vehicle mfg tech data says and those that don't simply have a opinion and make ignorant comments about those that have done their research.
Case in point is a F350 SRW crew cab 4x4 6.7 172" wheelbase 6290 RAWR comes with a 10k or a 11.2K GVWR. This is the same truck from front to rear bumper.
The 10k GVWR SRW has a 2550 lb payload.
The same truck in the F250 has a 10k gvwr a 2450 lb payload.
Now look at all the spec that Ford engineers has given us for the 10k gvwr F350 SRW and the 10k F250 are the same with exception of rear spring ratings.
Same with the 11.2k gvwr F350 SRW configured like my example above.
Registered weights has nothing to do with the OP topic of 3/4 ton vs one ton SRW actual mechanical differences. Thats another topic.
