Don't know if this is relevant, but mine was a factory order.

Spent a few hours with the salesman at the dealer - went through the big white book with all the option packages and listiings and the order code numbers.

Some of the stuff I wanted was included in packages, other stuff was order coded - waited about six weeks for delivery of the truck, and I went over it pretty thoroughly when I took delivery.

Truth to tell, I've always found Ford's constantly changing model designations and configurations to be more than somewhat confusing, especially in light of their waiver that "manufacturer reserves the right to change or substitute equipment without notice" (paraphrase).

Anyway, in the long run, most of that is rather academic, as there are plenty of aftermarket mods that can be done to configure the vehicle exactly as the owner would wish.

IIRC, the Level 2's also had extended breather lines. I know my rear diff goes above the frame rail, and theres a breather line clipped into the engine bay by the master cylinder.

stock, my xlt 4x4 OR's rear goes to the same location. The front however, ends at the upper shock mount.

learn something new everyday. didn't know about the breather lines.
