I have a F250 with a heavy duty suspension, yes, even heavier than a F350, that was originally ordered from the factory in 1976. My question is, would it be better to put dual shocks on the front, or put on the sway bar? I have the add on bracket for the sway bar or additional shock. I even have the original setup for the back, for either the dual shock or sway bar brackets. I don't have a lot of body roll, even with a 11.5' truck camper in the bed. What do you think?

 

Sway bar all the way....

 

If you have the stuff, why not just add both, double up your insurance!

 

Is this truck a 2wd or 4wd ? If it's a High Boy then it must be aftermarket stuff because no sway bars or dual shocks were ever available from the factory for one.

 

My truck is a 2WD, and according to the Ford ordering guide for 1976, it was a add-on for 2WD F250's.

From a 79 SuperCab Camper Special ($15):


$20 radius arms from a 78 F150 and the $8 swaybar brackets from an 83 E150:

 

I got the entire front and rear kit for $17.00 each, and he threw in the original camper wiring harness.
