I always thought it was the axle that determined the Weight Carring Capacity of the truck? I guess these are the same rears that were in my Bronco, and that had a much more substantial WCC to it...

The Level II rear axle assembly is from the one-ton South American Ranger. The only difference is that the LII's have the Torsen guts. I think that it was upgraded because of the anticipated off-road use/abuse. LII's don't have more payload capacity than most other Rangers. In fact, some other Rangers have a higher payload rating.
