Contemplating on doing the rear leaf swap using 08 and up leaf springs. Yes I know they are longer which is why in my situation I think they would help. I did a rear shackle flip and it shoved my axle forward. Instead of buying PMF lift blocks to correct this is rather just get new leafs. Plus I want to go with a lift spring anyways. So who all has done it? Any other suggestions? Thank you!!

I think for my application id be better off just buying new 08+ springs and just relocating my hangers accordingly. Honestly for that price they aren't worth it to me.

Have you seen these? http://www.pmfsuspension.com/08-Spring-Hanger-Conversion-for-99-07_p_8.html

Do they make those hangers for obs trucks? They don't have any listed on their site.

They aren't made specifically for OBS trucks, but I am sure they can be used on OBS trucks. Here is a thread with the first set installed http://www.powerstroke.org/forum/su...nally-doing-my-08-leaf-spring-conversion.html. They only utilize one existing hole on each side of a SD and the rest need to be drilled. It won't be much different on an OBS.
