Front leaf springs

How can you tell if you have tired or worn out front leaf springs? I have a 1999 F-250SD.

Thanks

loss of hight, excesive roll in a turn, crappy handleing. I have an 02' just changed mine with Pro Comp 3'' springs. and yes they were done 150k miles. The Powerstroke is a lot of weight on 2 springs. The differance was like driving a new truck. Forwarned changing the front springs is a P in the A. I wouldn't reccomend the average abberdaber with limited facility to try and tackle.
