I know what your thinking...
Heres the deal, I know someone that has a 97 F350 standard cab longbed 4x4 w/ an 8in lift. He wants it back to stock or lower than stock, I have a 92 250 w/ 265/75 tires on it and he likes that height. I'm thinking of swaping the rear 250 blocks, and either finding stock 350 leaf springs for the front or using the 250 ones with an add a leaf.
He wants this lower than stock to pull a gooseneck and be able to get things in and out of the bed easier.
My concern is that he uses it to plow snow in the winter, so will stock 250 springs w/ an add a leaf work ok? Also, will the truck sit funny with F250 rear blocks and stock rear springs with stock F350 front springs? I think it has 6 springs in the rear w/ 1 overload. How many should be in the front Stock?
Hes ok with going back to a 265/75/16 tire size.
