Message: [QUOTE="mjonesjr, post: 386682, member: 1076"] I swapped out the front F-250 leafs (add-a-leaf installed in them) for a set of F-350 front leafs today. Holy crap the truck rides so much better. Now the rear is what is stiff on the ride. I need to get the front swap bar frame brackets and install the front sway bar. The fender height with the F-250 springs and add-a-leafs was 39.5". [ATTACH=full]185243[/ATTACH] F-250 with add-a-leafs compared to the F-350 springs. [ATTACH=full]185244[/ATTACH] F-350 springs, F-250 springs, and the add-a-leaf for comparison. [ATTACH=full]185245[/ATTACH] F-250 leafs compared to the F-350 leafs. The F-250 leafs are considerably thicker than the F-350 leafs. [ATTACH=full]185246[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]185247[/ATTACH] Both shackle bushings looked like this. All the spring and shackle bushings got replaced with poly bushings. [ATTACH=full]185248[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]185249[/ATTACH] Shackle bushing out. [ATTACH=full]185250[/ATTACH] Leaf spring poly bushings. [ATTACH=full]185251[/ATTACH] Shackle and front part of the leaf installed. [ATTACH=full]185252[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]185253[/ATTACH] All back together. [ATTACH=full]185254[/ATTACH] The final ride height with the F-350 springs installed is 39" to the fender. That gives me right at 1" lower than the rear with the 2" F-250 rear blocks installed. I can't decide if I want to install the 4" F-350 blocks and have right at 3" rake.
