I wish. Lowes' only 7/16 bolts were the ones with only the last inch threaded. Im about half an inch too long, so the nut has a gap after the thread stops

I am having the same issue. I recently did a v/modded b code swap with winch bumper front and rear. On my 05 6l x. Before the bumpers were on it sat strait then after the new bumpers about 2-3 inch sag in the front. I was thinking about putting the next spring from the rear in the front to rais it but was afraid it would stiffen up the ride too much. My guess is that the overload B code spring is tighter than the third lead in the stock rear pack so should be ok. What do you guys think.
