That's pretty true for most years right? Job 2 starts around July?
To the best of my knowledge, after following this for many years, the changeover seems to occur in July or early August.
The F-150 frames come from a plant in Elizabethtown, Ky., owned by Metalsa S.A. de C.V., a Mexican company that bought Dana Corp.’s structural products business in 2010.I believe June 2021 was start of job 2.
I have a May 21 build with job 2 frame though. ?
Guess I need to go sticker hunting.The F-150 frames come from a plant in Elizabethtown, Ky., owned by Metalsa S.A. de C.V., a Mexican company that bought Dana Corp.’s structural products business in 2010.
They are shipped via. rail to both KC and Dearborn plants approximately 1 to 3 weeks ahead of production requirements. The part numbers have stayed the same from 2021 to current 2023 production. For all wheelbase versions. Unless the frame was replaced you should have a tag like this that shows the frames production date.
The sticker is on the passenger side, outer frame rail very clear if you lay next to the truck. There always upside down, because that the way the frames are shipped to the plants, and how they hit the assembly line so there legible to the workers.Guess I need to go sticker hunting.
The Ford Performance skid plate kit only fits 21 job 2 and later because they changed the holes in frame. My job 1 has the hole locations from job 2 trucks. So they made the change much earlier in production or I have a job 2 frame. ?
No idea what this means, other than 05/04/21 and 145"The F-150 frames come from a plant in Elizabethtown, Ky., owned by Metalsa S.A. de C.V., a Mexican company that bought Dana Corp.’s structural products business in 2010.

Not challenging at all, just looking for education out of curiosity .....

Does that not indicate a 'Job 2' build in the sense being discussed in this thread, and if not, can you explain what "2022 JOB #2 PROGRAM CONTROL" means?
No big deal, just curious, thanks in advance!
Lol, during my 72-hour subscription I prowled through every tab and option I could find and downloaded every bit of VIN-specific stuff I could find (boatloads of pages, the PDF attached above is only one), even though much was and still is not fully understood by me
I've actually never noticed this in the build sheets before, It certainly appears as though you have a Job 2, 2022 truck. I just looked and mine and found the same information and I have a 2021 job 1 so the build sheet seems to be accurate. I'll do a little research and try to find out when the 2022 cutoff date was. It would seem that Ford moved to Job2 earlier than usual in 2022Not challenging at all, just looking for education out of curiosity .....

I'm not able to find the Job 2 cutoff date for 2022 for either KC or Deaborn. Very strange. But it would appear they knew that an early cutoff would happen as the order guide published in March of 22 was aready discussing the Job 2 changes, with date yet to be determined.Thanks so much, I didn't mean to send you on a goose chase!
I'm not at all sure what the Job 1 vs 2 differences were in 2022.
Though far from competent to 'decode' Ford's build sheet 'crypto-speak', among the (more than a few) things that confuse me on mine is
when in fact I definitely have speed sign recognition with my "Ford Co-Pilot 360 Assist 2.0"
HLQAA LESS SPEED SIGN RECOGNITION
Oh well, really doesn't matter, per the attached Monroney I know I got exactly the options I ordered with my truck (I had no factory deletes by some miracle, the auto stop-start delete was my choice) and I absolutely love my truck.
