Regular Cab and Super Cab (not available or recommended for
SuperCrew), and includes the following upgrades:
²F±150 4x4 (except F±150 SuperCrew)
²5.4L engine
²Heavy-duty payload package
²Snowplow prep package
Installing the snowplow
Weight limits and guidelines for selecting and installing the snowplow can
be found in the Ford Truck Body Builders Layout Book, Snowplow
section, found at www.fleet.ford.com/truckbbas. A typical installation
affects the following:
²Certification to government safety laws such as occupant protection
and air bag deployment, braking, and lighting. Look for an9Alterer's
Label9on the vehicle from the snowplow installer certifying that the
installation meets all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards (FMVSS).
²The Total Accessory Reserve Capacity (TARC) is shown on the lower
right side of the vehicle's Safety Certification Label. This is the weight
of permanently-attached auxiliary equipment, such as snowplow
frame-mounting hardware, that can be added to the vehicle and satisfy
Ford compliance certification to FMVSS. Exceeding this weight may
require the auxiliary equipment installer additional safety certification
responsibility. The Front Accessory Reserve Capacity (FARC) is added
for customer convenience
²Rear ballast weight behind the rear axle may be required to prevent
exceeding the FGAWR, and provide front-to-rear weight balance for
proper braking and steering.
²Front wheel toe may require re-adjustment to prevent premature
uneven tire wear. Specifications are found in the Ford Workshop
Manual.
²Headlight aim may require re-adjustment.
²The tire air pressures recommended for general driving are found on
the vehicle's Safety Certification Label. The maximum cold inflation
pressure for the tire and associated load rating is imprinted on the tire
sidewall. Tire air pressure may require re-adjustment within these
pressure limits to accommodate the additional weight of the snowplow
installation
