I've done a lot of searching/reading on front leaf springs and how to raise front of our pickups.
I have the standard 2 leaf spring on the front of my F250 and have the standard sag from years of holding up the IDI.
I know a air bag system would really work wonders, but not ready to spend that kinda of money yet.
Could a person make your own helper springs by using the bottom leaf from another 2 leaf spring from F250???
Basically cut the spring short of where it wraps around the bushing on both ends. Use some longer u-bolts to hold the "new" 3 leaf spring in place.
I'm sure not the first person to think of this idea, but just trying to think of some lower cost ideas.
I know there are lots of people here that have many more years of working with these suspensions. Lets hear some of the ideas on this.
Thanks.
