Well according to my 74 FSM
W2 = W200 4x4 3/4ton
7 = flat face cowl,club cab and sweptline
B = 6001 to 10000 gross vehicle wieght in pounds
D = 440-1
8 - 78 year
S = Warren Plant #1
The rest is the seq serial #
Now I know my 74 D200 has the camper special package and the extra springs for a GVW of 9000 compared to the standard 8100lbs.
My truck weights roughly 5300lbs with a GVW of 9000 so thats roughly a ton and a quarter according to the math.
I dont see another designation for a specific 1.25?!?!
