GCVWR on a cutaway E-350 - Diesel Forum

Johnny96 · 01-25-2003, 02:15 PM

It's a 7.3 IDI, no turbo, C6 auto, 3.55 gears (I think), & 225/75R16 tires on the drive axle (235/85R16's on the steer, if it matters). GVWR is 11,500. Anyone?

If it matters, it has 232,000 miles & 22,850 hours on the engine.

I would not know your GCVWR but I have towed 10,000 with mine last weekend and that was through the Adirondack mountains. The only time it slowed was going up the mountains and the only point I had to take the slow lane was only at one spot and that was half way up that part already. When I refer to the slow lane i mean those third lanes that popup for slow moving vehicles.

I guess it would depend on what type of body is on the cutaway and the body manufacturer may know. My ambulance that I towed with has the 4.10 gears also. Yours would be less than I towed because of the 3.55 gears.
