The F150 7700 is a payload pkg that makes a standard F150 into a 3/4 ton. In fact the F250 around 1998 or so was what the F150 7700 was. They offer larger axles with 7 lug wheels, along with larger brakes and springs, as well as a stiffer frame. And it had the 4R100 as opposed to the standard 150 that came with the 4R70W. They are not a 1/2 ton! Depending on how the cab and bed is configured it can have anywhere from 2700lbs to 3300lbs CCC! That's more than most 3/4 ton trucks.
