We will Rise Again
Is there much difference in ride between the early 73-77 F250 4x4s Highboys with the 6 spring pack vs the later ones 77.5-79s with the 2 pack springs? Also, based on this website http://www.generalspringkc.com/index.php?p=catalog&parent=80&pg=1
the spring capacity for the 2 leaf is heavier. Is that true? Anyway, I was just wondering if going to a 2 pack spring make the ride any smoother? I'm not looking for a luxery ride because I know that's not possible with these, but a little bit smoother would be nice. I did notice that the PO of my truck added a leaf to my front ones so that I have a 7 pack spring. I don't know if that would make much of a difference or not in ride. The other thing is, I want to keep the 4 inch lift so is that possible with a different block of some sort and using the 2 pack spring? I'm not looking at doing any fabrication or anything, just a direct swap kind of thing. But, if it's not much of a difference than I'm not even going to look at a swap because my springs aren't shot or anything.
