Ford Canada's 2024 towing guide gives six distinct F-350 rating families. Across the alternatives Ford actually prints, SRW conventional ratings run from 13,700 to 25,000 lb, SRW fifth-wheel ratings from 13,500 to 27,400 lb and SRW gooseneck ratings from 13,700 to 27,600 lb. F-350 DRW conventional ratings run from 17,600 to 28,000 lb, fifth-wheel ratings from 17,400 to 35,000 lb and gooseneck ratings from 17,500 to 38,000 lb. These are matrix boundaries, not a universal rating. The exact engine and output, axle ratio, GCWR, cab, drive, wheelbase, box, tires, package, hitch and physical truck labels must all agree. This edition also contains genuine blank body cells; none is filled from the 2023 guide or a neighbouring configuration.
Direct answer: choose one of six 2024 F-350 result families
Begin with the rear-wheel arrangement and hitch method. SRW and DRW are separate tables, while conventional, fifth-wheel and gooseneck ratings are separate results. The maximum in one family cannot be transferred to another hitch or body style.
A 38,000-lb F-350 figure is a gooseneck result for one DRW Regular Cab configuration. Its paired fifth-wheel value is 35,000 lb, and the F-350 conventional ceiling is 28,000 lb. The lowest applicable vehicle, hitch, component or trailer limit remains the operating ceiling.
| 2024 F-350 family | All published alternatives | Upper-end source condition |
|---|---|---|
| SRW conventional | 13,700–25,000 lb | 25,000: H.O. diesel Crew Cab 4x4 long box, tire-specific alternative |
| SRW fifth-wheel | 13,500–27,400 lb | 27,400: H.O. diesel Regular Cab 4x4, all-terrain-tire alternative |
| SRW gooseneck | 13,700–27,600 lb | 27,600: paired Regular Cab 4x4 gooseneck alternative |
| DRW conventional | 17,600–28,000 lb | 28,000: H.O. diesel Crew Cab, 4x2 or 4x4 |
| DRW fifth-wheel | 17,400–35,000 lb | 35,000 appears in multiple diesel cells |
| DRW gooseneck | 17,500–38,000 lb | 38,000: H.O. diesel Regular Cab 4x2 |
Match Ford's exact cab, drive, wheelbase and box column
The SRW matrix has ten body columns. Regular Cab uses a 141.6-inch wheelbase and eight-foot box. SuperCab uses 148.0-inch short-box and 164.2-inch long-box branches. Crew Cab uses 159.8-inch short-box and 176.0-inch long-box branches. Each body is divided again by 4x2 or 4x4.
The DRW matrix has six F-350 positions: Regular Cab 141.6, SuperCab 164.2 and Crew Cab 176.0 inches, each in 4x2 and 4x4 with an eight-foot box. Four adjacent F-450 columns are outside this guide.
| F-350 branch | 2024 source positions | Box |
|---|---|---|
| SRW Regular Cab | 4x2 or 4x4; 141.6-in wheelbase | 8 ft |
| SRW SuperCab | 4x2 or 4x4; 148.0 or 164.2 in | 6.75 or 8 ft |
| SRW Crew Cab | 4x2 or 4x4; 159.8 or 176.0 in | 6.75 or 8 ft |
| DRW F-350 | Regular 141.6; SuperCab 164.2; Crew 176.0; each drive | 8 ft |
| Adjacent F-450 | Four separate columns | Excluded |
The 2024 SRW conventional matrix retains source blanks
Ford says the conventional values are the same for weight-carrying and weight-distributing use, but the installed receiver and loading instructions still matter. The row overview below is a selector aid, not permission to substitute the range endpoint for the exact body cell.
The standard- and high-output 6.7L diesel 3.31 rows leave both SuperCab 4x2 positions blank. Other rows also contain blank body cells. A source blank means the guide publishes no value there; it does not authorize copying a 2023 value, averaging adjacent cells or assuming the same rating as 4x4.
| Engine / axle / GCWR branch | Published conventional alternatives | 2024 boundary |
|---|---|---|
| 6.7L standard / 3.31 or 3.55 / 31,000 | 20,000–23,200 lb | 3.31 omits both SuperCab 4x2 cells |
| 6.7L H.O. / 3.31 / 31,800 | 20,000–24,000 lb | Tire alternatives remain cell-specific |
| 6.7L H.O. / 3.55 / 31,200 or 35,200 | 18,200 Tremor; up to 25,000 lb | Keep the two GCWR branches separate |
| 6.8L / 3.73 or 4.30 / 21,000 or 24,400 | 13,700–18,100 lb | Do not fill printed blanks |
| 7.3L / 3.73 or 4.30 / 25,200, 28,600 or 29,000 | 17,700–19,500 lb; 18,200 Tremor | Tremor 17Y is a marked alternative |
SRW fifth-wheel and gooseneck values stay paired but distinct
Ford prints a fifth-wheel result beside a gooseneck result for each populated SRW position. The high-output 6.7L / 3.55 / 35,200-lb-GCWR Regular Cab 4x4 all-terrain-tire alternative reaches 27,400 lb fifth-wheel and 27,600 lb gooseneck. Those two numbers remain attached to that same source cell.
Other cab, tire and axle combinations produce lower pairs. A dash or blank in either position is preserved, and a value from the adjacent hitch column is not a replacement.
| SRW engine group | Fifth-wheel span | Gooseneck span |
|---|---|---|
| 6.7L standard-output rows | 20,100–23,700 lb | 21,100–23,800 lb |
| 6.7L high-output rows | 20,100–27,400 lb | 21,100–27,600 lb |
| 6.8L gas rows | 13,500–17,800 lb | 13,700–18,000 lb |
| 7.3L gas rows | 17,500–22,200 lb | 17,700–22,400 lb |
Tire, Tremor and package alternatives are not global upgrades
Ford's tire footnotes distinguish 18-inch all-season from 18- and 20-inch all-terrain applications. Slash-separated alternatives belong only to the marked body cell. Confirm the complete tire specification, not merely wheel diameter.
Tremor Off-Road Package 17Y creates separate marked results in high-output-diesel and 7.3L rows. Heavy Duty Payload Package 68F creates alternatives in specified F-350 DRW Regular Cab 4x2 cells. Neither note can be applied arithmetically across the table.
Complete 2024 F-350 DRW conventional matrix
The six values run from F-350 Regular Cab 4x2 through Crew Cab 4x4. F-450 columns are excluded. Every number is pounds; an em dash below represents a genuine blank in the Ford Canada table.
The 6.8L and 7.3L gas rows omit SuperCab 4x2 and Crew Cab 4x2. Those positions remain blank even though another model year or drive column may show a number.
| Engine / axle / GCWR | Reg 4x2 | Reg 4x4 | Super 4x2 | Super 4x4 | Crew 4x2 | Crew 4x4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6.7 std / 3.55 / 40,000 | 24,800 / 18,200 with 68F | 24,800 | 26,700 | 26,700 | 27,000 | 27,000 |
| 6.7 std / 4.10 / 43,900 | 24,800 / 18,200 with 68F | 24,800 | 26,700 | 26,700 | 27,000 | 27,000 |
| 6.7 H.O. / 3.55 / 40,500 | 24,800 | 24,800 | 26,700 | 26,700 | 27,000 | 27,000 |
| 6.7 H.O. / 4.10 / 45,600 | 24,800 | 24,800 | 26,700 | 26,700 | 28,000 | 28,000 |
| 6.8L / 4.30 / 25,400 | 18,700 / 18,200 with 68F | 18,300 | — | 17,800 | — | 17,600 |
| 7.3L / 3.73 / 25,700 | 18,900 | 18,500 | — | 18,100 | — | 17,800 |
| 7.3L / 4.30 / 29,500 | 22,000 | 22,000 | — | 21,900 | — | 21,600 |
Standard-output diesel DRW bed-mounted ratings
Each entry is fifth-wheel / gooseneck. The 3.55 row uses 40,000-lb GCWR and the 4.10 row uses 43,900 lb. The package 68F alternative stays in the Regular Cab 4x2 cell and retains a separate value for each hitch method.
The 4.10 row reaches 35,000 lb fifth-wheel in five positions, while its gooseneck values vary by body. That repeated fifth-wheel number does not erase the configuration match.
| 6.7L standard row | Reg 4x2 | Reg 4x4 | Super 4x2 | Super 4x4 | Crew 4x2 | Crew 4x4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3.55 / 40,000 | 32,300/32,500; 32,400/32,600 with 68F | 31,900/32,000 | 31,800/32,000 | 31,400/31,600 | 31,700/31,800 | 31,200/31,300 |
| 4.10 / 43,900 | 35,000/36,400; 35,000/36,500 with 68F | 35,000/35,900 | 35,000/35,900 | 35,000/35,500 | 35,000/35,700 | 34,800/35,200 |
High-output diesel DRW bed-mounted ratings
The 3.55 axle row uses 40,500-lb GCWR. The 4.10 row uses 45,600 lb and produces the highest F-350 gooseneck values. Fifth-wheel and gooseneck remain separate columns even where the fifth-wheel figure repeats.
Regular Cab 4x2 at 4.10 is 35,000 lb fifth-wheel and 38,000 lb gooseneck. Crew Cab 4x4 is 34,700/35,800. These paired cells show why a single diesel-dually headline is insufficient.
| 6.7L H.O. row | Reg 4x2 | Reg 4x4 | Super 4x2 | Super 4x4 | Crew 4x2 | Crew 4x4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3.55 / 40,500 | 32,800/32,900 | 32,300/32,500 | 32,300/32,500 | 31,900/32,100 | 32,100/32,300 | 31,700/31,800 |
| 4.10 / 45,600 | 35,000/38,000 | 35,000/37,600 | 35,000/37,600 | 35,000/37,200 | 35,000/37,400 | 34,700/35,800 |
Gas DRW bed-mounted blanks remain unavailable
Ford publishes gas fifth-wheel/gooseneck pairs for Regular Cab, SuperCab 4x4 and Crew Cab 4x4, while leaving SuperCab 4x2 and Crew Cab 4x2 blank. This guide renders those blanks as em dashes rather than supplying an invented rating.
The smallest populated DRW bed-mounted values are 17,400 lb fifth-wheel and 17,500 lb gooseneck in the 6.8L Crew Cab 4x4 cell.
| Gas row | Reg 4x2 | Reg 4x4 | Super 4x2 | Super 4x4 | Crew 4x2 | Crew 4x4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6.8L / 4.30 / 25,400 | 18,500/18,600; 18,700/18,900 with 68F | 18,000/18,200 | — | 17,600/17,800 | — | 17,400/17,500 |
| 7.3L / 3.73 / 25,700 | 18,700/18,800 | 18,200/18,400 | — | 17,800/18,000 | — | 17,600/17,700 |
| 7.3L / 4.30 / 29,500 | 22,500/22,500 | 22,000/22,200 | — | 21,600/21,800 | — | 21,400/21,500 |
The 40,000-lb figure belongs to F-450, not F-350
The combined DRW page continues into four F-450 columns. Package 535 is explicitly the F-450 High Capacity Gooseneck Tow Package, and the 40,000-lb result sits in that model's branch. It is excluded from every F-350 range and table here.
Other nearby 38,600-, 36,900-, 36,800- and 30,000-lb results also belong to F-450 positions. Reading across the printed model heading is essential before quoting any cell.
2024 is not a duplicate of the 2023 guide
The broad engine families and headline endpoints match 2023, but the underlying publication does not. The 2024 matrices add explicit source blanks in SRW diesel and other rows, while DRW gas now omits both 4x2 extended-cab positions. Those changes are purchasing-relevant evidence boundaries.
The combined 2024 DRW page has ten body columns—six F-350 and four F-450—rather than the prior edition's twelve. This exact-year page therefore remains separate and does not inherit missing cells from its sibling.
GCWR is part of the selector, not extra trailer allowance
Gross combined weight rating limits the loaded truck and loaded trailer together. It is not added to a trailer rating. Occupants, cargo, accessories and hitch hardware increase truck weight and can consume payload or axle capacity before a published trailer maximum is reached.
Use a scale for the loaded truck and trailer when planning a real combination. Compare the measured total and axle weights with GCWR, GVWR, front and rear GAWR, tire limits, hitch limits and the chosen Ford cell.
Payload and rear-axle load can become the practical constraint
Conventional tongue weight is commonly planned around 10% of loaded trailer weight; fifth-wheel or gooseneck load is often estimated near 15% before measurement. These are planning estimates, not Ford ratings and not substitutes for a scale ticket.
Transferred hitch load, people, tools, fuel and accessories all bear on the truck. Subtract them from the individual truck's carrying-capacity label and verify loaded rear-axle weight against rear GAWR.
Use physical labels for the individual truck
The certification label establishes the completed truck's GVWR and GAWR. The tire and loading label states the vehicle-specific combined occupant and cargo allowance. Axle code, engine, cab, drive, box, tire and installed packages must agree with the source row.
A VIN lookup or sales listing may help identify equipment, but this research does not certify an unseen Canadian VIN. If paperwork conflicts with physical labels, pause the towing calculation and resolve the identity with Ford documentation.
The installed hitch still has its own limit
Ford's statement that conventional weight-carrying and weight-distributing figures are equal does not raise the receiver's stamped rating. Verify receiver, ball mount, ball, coupler and distribution hardware separately.
For bed-mounted towing, confirm whether the equipment and trailer are fifth-wheel or gooseneck. The two Ford columns can differ, so the hitch type is evidence rather than a stylistic choice.
SAE J2807 explains the test framework, not your exact result
Ford identifies SAE J2807 methodology in the towing guide. That provides a standardized performance framework but does not override the configuration matrix, physical labels, hitch rating or loaded weights.
A truck sharing the same engine can have a different axle, cab, wheelbase, rear-wheel arrangement, tire or package. Engine marketing alone cannot establish its trailer rating.
A defensible 2024 F-350 lookup sequence
Record model year, pickup body, SRW or DRW, engine and output, axle ratio, GCWR, cab, 4x2 or 4x4, wheelbase, box, tire and package. Choose conventional, fifth-wheel or gooseneck, then locate the exact populated source cell.
Next, verify the physical labels and installed hitch. Load the truck as used, obtain scale weights, include trailer load transfer and compare every applicable limit. If the source cell is blank, stop: this guide does not create a rating.
Questions to ask before buying or configuring one
Ask for label photographs, axle ratio evidence, engine-output identification, tire details, cab and wheelbase confirmation, package documentation and the installed hitch rating. For a working truck, list permanent bodies, tanks, tools and accessories.
Request recent loaded scale tickets when available. A seller's statement that a truck is a diesel dually or one-ton is not enough to select one of the 2024 cells.
What these sources do not establish
The official matrices do not prove the condition, remaining payload, current equipment or safe loaded combination of a vehicle that has not been inspected and weighed. They also do not provide a reliability ranking or failure rate.
No inventory, seller, dealer count, price, financing or offer is inferred. The separate trucks area remains a protected commercial surface; this page is an indexable research guide.
Source scope and review method
This guide uses Ford Canada's 45-page 2024 RV and Trailer Towing Guide. Printed/PDF pages 25–27 were rendered at 180 dpi and visually checked for the F-350 SRW and DRW columns, fifth-wheel/gooseneck pairs, package notes and blank cells. The Ford Canada towing index provides the official document path.
The 2024 Super Duty owner's manual supplies loading and label context. It does not replace the Canadian configuration matrix. Sources were reviewed on 13 September 2026.
Continue with related F-350 evidence
Use the model guide for discovery, the general towing guide for current configuration concepts and the exact-year siblings for historical comparisons. Payload-label and towing tools can organize a load budget after the correct source cell is identified.
Keep research and commercial intent separate. A specification page can explain evidence boundaries without asserting that a matching truck is available for sale.
Evidence note: manufacturer documents establish the specific facts and applications cited. Buying workflows and cost scenarios are DieselTrucks.ca editorial guidance. These pages do not publish measured failure rates or confirm the condition, recall status or capacity of a particular truck.
General educational content for Canadian diesel-pickup research. Verify the exact truck, model year, certification labels, owner manual and manufacturer documentation, and obtain qualified mechanical or towing advice where appropriate.
