Nope, im still running the factory one. drivers side tire MIGHT stick out 1/2" past the fender... if that. Handling doesnt suffer one bit from it. I am running a Rough Country dual stabilizer kit tho.

all Super Duty's have a straight axle front end.... 1st gen's have leaf springs, 2nd, 3rd (and now 4th) have Radius Arm Coil sprung front ends... its a lot more forgiving than the oldschool leaf packs, but not as cool IMO.
