Simple answer - check the rear GAWR of the said F250, compare it to your current rear GAWR, and that's your increase in payload.
If you're super worried about the whole legal thing, get your truck re-registered for the front + rear GAWR. Depending on your local law, you may need an upfitter to re-certify a new GAWR, according to the axle's manufacturer's rating (not Ford's).
