Looks like I may have been a little optimistic. Definitely check the door sticker, and the owner's manual before hooking up.

Will do... I am speaking from what the Sales man said. Which could be a lil inflated. I know the commander was towing was 7500 so I believed when he said 11.
Gotta be better than 7500 and stuff. Thanks for the input. I don't intend to pull more than one XJ. The commander was iffy but now I know I can with this.

Nope, under the driver seat.
Oh, hell.... if a sales droid tells me that the sun rises in the east, I'll verify that tomorrow morning myself, thankyewverymuch.
I hate to say this, but the specs I've been looking at range from 6,000 to around 8,500 lbs trailering.

Well scheming throught the f-150 forums I saw a few people talking about 9900.
I will check on the sticker when I pick it up this evening.
Either way the 5.4L has got to pull more than the 4.7L
And all I am looking to pull is 1 XJ so I will be ok.

My 2000 F150 would tow 7 or 8k without an issue. I want to say that newer F150's are closing in on 10k or over towing capacity...
Check this out:2008 specs

What about a 3/4ton Ram like the one you were driving Rob. With a short bed of course.

KBB says 9400-9500 Towing Cap. with the 5.5' or 6.5' bed. Thats 2wd though. GVWR of 7050.
My FSM states under the driver's seat. Which is where I have a hole in the carpet with four studs sticking up. I will however take a peek under the counsel.

I'm Alive, The Jeep and Her Benz not so much! I was traveling east heading home. She was coming West and decided to turn Left I turned right a bit to avoid a head on impact and my drivers front hit her drivers front and it deflected me and I Slid down the Hill. The Jeep can be replaced but I need to call and thank JCR for those bulletproof rails that kept my side of the Jeep intact. I honestly don't think they are even bent! The ARB is Toast but Held up well for hitting a car at around 50mph. I am on the look out for a 97-99 with around 3 inches of lift, preferably a 2 door. All I can really say is that Airbag dust is TERRIBLE!uke:
Gah! What'd you do to my bumper?!?
Seriously, though, glad you're okay.
I think the ARB was bad luck, wasn't that like the third "incident" you've had since you bolted it on?
X2 on the pics!

No just one. The first 2 hit the hitch in the rear! That Bumper probably saved my life Robert! :cheers:

I don't like that dodge at all. Just free gas for me when I need it. F-150 IMO is just a better truck.
No No I like the F 150 :rof:
