I have a 2000 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson 2wd, V8 5.4 motor, automatic transmission and a rear axle radio of 3.73. In the manual it indicates a “Maximum Trailer Weight” of 4,000 Lbs.pounds and other F-150 models with same specifications have a Maximum Trailer Weight of 8,700. My question is if this is related with the Shock Absorber, Leaf Spring, Aluminum Drive Shaft of Transmission? Regards
