When duty calls, the 2005 Ford Chassis Cabs arrive more capable than ever. On F-450/F-550, a new wider-track
front end points the way, and its engineering powerfully delivers: The new front suspension and steering systems
provide excellent maneuverability and a tighter turning diameter, and an improved frame helps increase front
GAWR capacity and supports GCWRs up to 33,000 lbs. New 3-valve engine technology adds even more muscle
to the renowned TritonTM gas engines. Improved 4-wheel disc brakes and Ford’s exclusive fully integrated Trailer
Brake Controller option redefine towing capability.

2005 Improved
Turning Diameter

Super In Tight Spots
All-New Steering — Thanks to the new suspension and steering systems, F-450 and F-550
Super Duty Chassis Cabs are easier than ever
to maneuver and park. Increased wheel cuts
allow for a turning-diameter improvement of
up to 12.9' curb-to-curb and 13.9' wall-to-wall.

Ford Super Duty Chassis Cabs have the capacity to handle the big loads, and the confidence to maneuver
them. The all-new Twin-Coil Monobeam front suspension on F-350 4x4 and F-450/F-550 is a major
contributor to astounding payload, GAWR, GVWR and GCWR capability. While refined engineering
makes it easier to transport your loads, a 5.25"-wider front axle and an all-new steering system with
increased wheel cuts reduce turning diameter by as much as 13.9' wall-to-wall on F-450/F-550 models.
Now Super Duty does more in even tighter working conditions.

13.9' Smaller

Carries The Heavy Weight

Up-Front Support

Massive Capabilities — Super Duty Chassis Cabs offer
strength across the board. Load-carrying capacities can
reach up to 12,300 lbs.; GVWRs up to 19,000 lbs.; and
GCWRs up to 33,000 lbs., when properly equipped.

New Twin-Coil Monobeam Front Suspension — On F-350 4x4
and all F-450/F-550 Super Duty models, this all-new front
suspension eliminates inherent interleaf friction and helps
reduce axle windup. On F-450/F-550, it also accommodates
a larger, 7000-lb.-capacity axle that’s 5.25" wider as well.

Productive Power
3-Valve Variable Cam Timing (VCT) — The 5.4L 3-valve
Triton V8 engine features innovative variable cam timing
and Electronic Throttle Control to deliver the power you
need to get the work moving.

> TREMENDO U S F O R C E .
Ford Super Duty Chassis Cabs deliver enormous power the moment you step on the accelerator. The vigorous
5.4L TritonTM V8 sets the standard, while the colossal 6.8L TritonTM V10 boasts best-in-class* gas horsepower and
torque. And new 3-valve technology ensures that you put your strength to its most efficient use. Equally robust
is Chassis Cab’s diesel counterpart — the Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel. The highly durable Power Stroke
churns out intense low-end torque and has a B10 life design of 250,000 miles. Combined with the 6-speed
manual or TorqShiftTM 5-speed automatic transmission, these powerplants offer optimum strength.
* Traditional chassis cab trucks under 22,000 lbs.

Extra Muscle

Power On Demand

TorqShift 5-Speed Automatic Transmission — This remarkable transmission
features a selectable tow/haul mode. Its sophisticated electronic controls
sense towing and hauling demands and adjust its operation to meet them.
When hauling a heavy load or trailer, the tow/haul mode helps reduce gear
hunting, improves power delivery, and even uses engine braking to help
control vehicle speed when descending hills.

Power TakeOff (PTO) — An available
transmission-integrated Power TakeOff
provision lets you power accessories like
dump boxes, plow blades, liftgates, winches,
skylifts, air compressors, auxiliary hydraulic
pumps and other add-on equipment.

Stationary Elevated Idle Control (SEIC) — New for 2005 and standard on every Chassis Cab
powertrain. This vital feature allows you to elevate the engine idle speed of a stationary
vehicle to operate a transmission-mounted PTO, or engine FEAD-mounted clutch pump, air
compressor or generator. On the 6.0L Power Stroke V8 Turbo Diesel, it can also be used
to help keep the vehicle battery charged under extreme electrical demand, such as when
supporting ambulance emergency lighting and life-support equipment.

> AN INTELLIGENT COMBINATION.

TIGHT SPOTS — NO PROBLEM
All-New Steering — With a 5.25"-wider front axle
and a new, more robust steering gear, F-450/F-550
Chassis Cabs can turn tighter than ever before.
F-450/F-550 turning diameter is improved by up to
12.9' curb-to-curb and 13.9' wall-to-wall.

F-450/F-550 Super Duty Chassis Cabs combine large performance numbers — a maximum 5th-wheel trailer weight
of 24,800 lbs.* and a maximum conventional trailer weight of 16,000 lbs.* — with an efficient, unified system that
maximizes its towing potential. An available first-in-class, fully integrated Trailer Brake Controller offers unprecedented
factory-installed towing control. The available TorqShiftTM automatic transmission with tow/haul mode helps keep
work moving smoothly, uphill or down. New steering gears generate a 24% increase in turning torque. Increased
wheel cuts and a wider axle produce a tighter turning diameter. And 30% stiffer calipers, thicker rotors with
4-wheel disc brakes offer more stopping power. Use your strength wisely. Use Super Duty Chassis Cab.

MORE BEEF AND BRAWN
Higher-Rated Front and Rear Axles — The F-450/F-550
front axle is now rated at 7000 lbs.,** that’s 1000 lbs.
higher. The F-450 rear-axle rating is also up 1000 lbs.
to 12,000 lbs. And the F-550 rear-axle rating is
now up to 13,660 lbs. **Front GAWR may vary by application.

* Requires aftermarket equipment.

"

Wider Axle

Spec’d To Work
Choice of payload ratings. High-capacity
axles, springs, shocks and standard front
and rear stabilizer bars allow you to do
the really big jobs confidently.

Stop It
Shift In Capability
TorqShift 5-Speed Automatic Transmission — This
available transmission features exceptional durability
and shift quality, adaptive learning, and a tow/haul
mode that helps reduce unwanted gear search on
inclines and provides more assured descents.

Crew Cab Access

New Brake System — Heavier loads require better brakes.
F-Series delivers with 30% stiffer calipers; thicker, fully
vented rotors; a new 4-wheel Anti-lock Brake System and
a new master cylinder for improved stopping power.

The rear-door hinges in Crew Cab
models allow the doors to open
extra-wide for great ingress/egress.

> THE BUSINE S S M O D E L .

Upfitters’ Dream
Upfitter Switches — These available switches
facilitate add-on system installations. They provide
easy power access and upfit operation integrated
with the instrument panel.

From dump body to stake bed, and everything in between, Super Duty Chassis Cab is Built Ford Tough to
easily upfit to your business needs. It starts underneath with a muscular rear axle and suspension capable
of handling a variety of upfitter installations. From there, heavy-duty flat frame rails and improved brakes
help contribute to massive GAWRs and GVWRs. Trailer tow mirrors even come standard. And seamless
factory-installed options like upfitter switches and an available fully integrated Trailer Brake Controller
send your truck out of the dealership ready for work. Just pick your cab and go.

Great Clearance

Regular Cab

Thanks to a low cab design,
F-Series Super Duty is well-suited
to over-cab upfits.

Front Seats — An all-vinyl full bench comes standard
on XL. A high-series cloth 40/20/40 split bench is
included with XLT models. Lariat includes a split bench
with leather-trimmed seats. (F-450 XL shown.)

The Bottom Line

Fuel Tank Choices

SuperCab

Super Duty Chassis Cab’s incredibly
strong frame provides a solid foundation
designed to conveniently shoulder
aftermarket installations.

Front Seats — Same as Regular Cab. Rear Seats —
A fold-up bench comes standard in vinyl on XL, cloth
on XLT and premium vinyl on Lariat. There is also
a rear-seat-delete option. (F-350 XLT shown.)

40-gallon aft-of-axle, an optional
19-gallon midship, or both on
diesel DRW models provide
up to a 59-gallon capacity.

Crew Cab
Front Seats — A cloth/vinyl weave bench seat comes standard on XL. A 40/20/40 split-bench
seat is standard in cloth on XLT and leather-trimmed on Lariat. Rear Seats — A cloth/vinyl
weave fold-forward bench is standard on XL. A FlexFoldTM 60/40 split rear bench with
fold-flat feature in cloth is standard on XLT and leather-trimmed on Lariat. (F-550 XLT shown.)

Flat Frame

Proportional Trailer Braking

Flat frame rails are
designed specifically
to accommodate
aftermarket bodies.

Integrated Trailer Brake Controller (TBC) — The available
TBC is seamlessly integrated and offers trailer braking that
is proportional to vehicle brake pressure for more towing
confidence. And because the system is factory-installed, it’s
a value covered by the Ford New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

F-350 DRW/F-450/F-550 weights shown are for 141" wheelbase Regular Cab or 176" wheelbase Crew Cab models.
For 165," 189," 200" and 201" wheelbase models, weights may be somewhat less (usually not more than 200 lbs. or
400 lbs. with 201" wheelbase).
2
Available with High-Capacity Trailer Tow Package only.

Note: 5th-wheel trailer weights shown. See your Ford Dealer for conventional trailer weights.
Note: Trailer weights shown assume 1000 lbs. second-unit body weight. Be sure combined weight of vehicle and trailer
does not exceed listed GCWR. Trailer kingpin weight should be 15-25% of total loaded trailer weight. Make sure that the
vehicle payload (reduced by option weight) will accommodate trailer kingpin weight and the weight of passengers and
cargo added to the towing vehicle. The addition of trailer kingpin weight, and the weight of passengers and cargo cannot
cause vehicle weights to exceed the rear GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) or GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). These
ratings can be found on the vehicle’s Safety Compliance Certification Label.
