I have an '04 King Ranch 4x4 with the leaf spring style suspension, and I have an 05 4x4 complete chassis. I am seriously considering swapping over the 05 suspension on to my 04. With that being said, here is my hesitation, I have had primarily Dodge/Cummins 4x4 trucks. They of course have the coil spring style suspension. The design is a little different than the Ford coil spring suspension, but same principle. My concern is that with the Dodges, you have to "drive" them. You are constantly making corrections. It didn't matter whether or it had all new front end parts, and a good alignment, they all drove the same. On long trips, I always felt tired of "driving" them. Does the Ford coil spring suspension suffer from the same thing or have they figured it out better than dodge? Do they drive better than the '99-04 suspension. I already know that everyone says they ride better, and turn sharper. I DO NOT WANT TO TURN THIS INTO A BRAND BASHING DISCUSSION. I want real world experience. Thanks in advance.-Nicholas
