09 F-SERIES SUPER DUTY
®
Only a foundation engineered and built like this can deliver true Super Duty
capability. Thick frame rails and crossmembers form a rigid ladder frame for
exceptional strength. Beefy suspensions handle the heaviest loads, and huge
axles are key to heavy-duty capacity. Braking is solid and predictable, stop after
stop. Every chassis is optimized like no other to deliver all-out capability. And it’s
tuned to deliver the quiet ride, stable handling, and road-going performance that’s
unique to Ford Super Duty pickups.
UNDER THE SKIN, MASSIVE MUSCLE

Standard on F-450. Optional on F-350 (requires DRW Crew Cab 4x4 Long Box Diesel).
RUGGED
A. RIVETED, WELDED OR BOTH, crossmembers are
secured by the method that optimizes frame capability.
B. STAGGERED REAR SHOCKS help control axle motions
for a smooth ride and confident handling — loaded or
unloaded.
C. REAR SUSPENSION employs Hotchkiss design to allow
model-specific spring and axle ratings for a wide range
of capacities. Max. GVWRs range from 8800 lbs. to
14,500 lbs. Max. GCWRs range from 15,000 lbs. all the
way up to 33,000 lbs.
D. LONG REAR SPRINGS measure over 66" to help manage
torque without compromising comfort.
E. THICK C-CHANNEL FRAME of up to 6.7-mm steel is one
reason Super Duty delivers best-in-class payload and
towing. Electrocoating promotes corrosion resistance.
F. MICRO-CELLULAR URETHANE BODY MOUNTS
compress proportionally to the load on rough roads and
during cornering for more controlled body motions and a
comfortable ride.
G. BODY-TO-FRAME MOUNTING BOLTS are driven from
the bottom up, a feature many aftermarket builders find
desirable.
H. OUTSTANDING BRAKING POWER is standard with a
4-wheel Anti-lock Brake System (ABS). Huge vented
rotors and dual-piston calipers provide strong,
consistent stops, even when moving the biggest loads.
I. LARGEST FRONT CONTROL ARMS support best-in-class
maximum front GAWRs of 6000 lbs. on F-450 4x4, and
5600 lbs. on F-450 4x2.
J. ENGINE TRACTION CONTROL option is a driver-
selectable function that can automatically step in to
reduce power when it detects a loss of traction.
HIGHEST GVWRS mean that a properly equipped F-450
DRW 4x2 can take on payload, passengers, fuel and cargo
up to 6190 lbs. A properly equipped F-350 DRW 4x2
outperforms its direct competitors with a maximum load
of up to 5730 lbs. No other competitive pickups can boast
such huge numbers.
