AF990 on F350 CC SRW
OK, so I've spent gobs of time reading about weights and trucks and what to do and what not to do. I've noticed many DRW owners have 9 foot campers and many have 11-12 footers, I've witnessed a Dodge...

The DRW F350 had the 11k lb Dana 80 rear axle while the SRW's had the 9750 lb Visteon Sterling 10.5" axle. Things recently changed with F350 SRW getting a Dana 275 axle which has the same or better rating as the Visteon and the F350 DRW getting the Dana 300 which is an update of the Dana 80.
I've lost the link but recently read that the 2010 F350 SRW's until march of 2010 had the Dana80 in the rear also, then were switched to the Sterling (which is actually where they are made, not really a model).
Either way, 9750lbs is more than enough for what I need. My weak links is starting to look like springs, tires, wheels and shocks.
If I'm right, and it doesn't act funny with that heavy TC than I might be just a happy camper ;)
Honestly, i'm bored, dying to go do some camping (though I do plan a trip to the cabin this weekend at least) and have nothing better to do than work (lol) and research my truck ;)
