@TaxmanHog was referring to the "vehicles" with trim level shown in your profile. Here's mine for reference.

After posting my information, I thought about the fact that SSV's might have unique build timeframes, so the real test of appropriate model year is the tenth character of your VIN's
2022 = N
2023 = P
2024 = R
2025 = S

Mine is R. Thanks for the info.

Special vehicle package.

oooo, didn't know the public could order that. Thought it was police only.

Most likely a municipality lost out on funding due to budget cuts and canceled their order.

Mine is black. Its an amazing difference driving with the ssv package. I have been road racing mustangs for along time so having a great handling truck is fun.

Hello. I called a local Ford dealer and talked with the parts dept. and he could not find anything for the suspension stuff. I HATE the front dampers and would likely do the quick switch to SSV package, at least in the front.

I think I would need a VIN or something for a truck with the package for them to find it?

Not sure...

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike Lillejord.

Only difference suspension wise I can find is heavier duty front socks on the police package ssv.

Hi. Do you have a part # and suggested price for those?

Local Parts counter guy at Ford could not find anything...

Another thread had an ordering guide and the ordering option would have been "66S" for this?

Thanks,

Mike Lillejord

Not in parts, I'm in repair. Tell them they need to look it up for a Lightning PRO SSV. There's two different struts depending on battery.

I tried but the person wasn't "getting it" over the phone. There is another dealership on my way to work and I will stop by there on Monday and talk with them in person and hopefully get a plan to upgrade.

If I figure it out, I will post the stuff here.

I will probably purchase the ER battery fronts even though I have a SR now. That might lift it a bit for now but I will probably bolt in an ER battery post warranty.

I am NEVER getting rid of this rig.

Thanks,

Mike

The valving is likely different but it won't do anything for lift, that's what the springs do.

Yup. I was going to likely buy the fully assembled strut. That might push it up a tiny bit...

One of the 2025 SSV Pros I saw for sale on AutoTrader had the 131kWh Extended range battery and the dual on board chargers for 80 amp L2 charging.
