Thumbs up what is the maximum tow rating, 1988 f150
I have a 1988 f150 ext cab long bed 5.0 v8, and I was wondering if any body knew what the maximum towing capacity for my truck is.

Eh, this source only goes back to 1991, but should be a good ballpark number - http://www.trailerboats.com/sharedco...mit=&x=62&y=12
