1994 F150 XL V8 specifications
I've come across a 94 F150 XL V8, 5.0 liter, 5spd, 133" WB that I'm pondering to purchase. However, I've been searching the net all over for the specs on this truck. In particular, I'd like to know what the stock axle ratio (3.05, 3.55?) is on this thing and I'm trying to figure out what the towing capacity would be. I'm looking to tow a horse trailer (2500lbs) and 2 horses (2100lbs) but don't want to be at the max.
Any information anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated!

I've found the answer. Interestingly when you have a manual transmission the towing capacity drops considerably. Makes sense though since the automatic is engaged all the time whereas the clutch isn't, so it's much more susceptible to wear and tear. An automatic can handle 6800 lbs, whereas the manual trans can only handle 5200/5400 lbs. The rear end is a 3:55.
