I have a 03' F350 7.3 CC LB SRW with a front end that weighs 4700lbs full of diesel with 2 people. The door post sticker is smeared so I cannot get codes from it.

I found some low miles (167 mi) front springs off a 04' F350 that are stamped 2C34 ADB; truck not available to look at door post codes. I did a search on here and the rest of the internet & from what I found these are "V" code springs rated at 2600 lbs ea.

I contacted 2 different Ford parts depts and they could not tell me based on that info what they are rated for but could tell me that based on my VIN that is the spring that was on my truck.

I bought the springs and was looking to order replacement bolts and came across Husky Springs web site and called them. They said that 2C34 ADB cross references with "V" code Springs 43-814 but they are rated for 2230 lbs not 2600 lbs and they recommended 43-818 rated for 2600 lbs for my truck.

I told them what Ford had said and what I have read on the internet and they gave me pad thickness measurements so I could confirm. The ones I bought measured 1 3/16 which according to them are 2230 lb 814's, not 1 5/16 (2630 lb 818's)

I already spent the money but before I go to the added expense for bolts & the trouble of putting these on my rig could someone please confirm
- the weight capacity specs for 2C34 ADB springs
- or you have the same rig & springs installed (my front pack has 5 springs so I can't compare it to mine) and they handle the weight fine.

I want a stock height rig with a suspension system that will handle the weight of my front end. Once I get the front squared away I'll move to the rear suspension (it currently has a 5/1 leaf springs plus an upper overload).
