Leaf Springs

Im looking to replace my front leaf springs on my 01 f350 4 x4 7.3
Im also looking to add some lift to the front end while doing so. Ive heard that if I install the 3 leaf heavy duty springs they will add 2" of lift. Can anyone confirm this and does any one have any recommendations where to purchase springs online?

I just ordered some springs from Junior at ATS springs. I got some modded X codes for the front and modded C codes for the rear. He is very knowledgeable and will custom make the spring packs to what you want. He re-arched the X and C codes he sold me to give a little more lift than just an X and C code straight replacement. They are much less expensive than the dealer springs but for me, shipping to CA wiped out some of the savings. I still saved a couple of hundred dollars over what the cheapest dealer would charge. Customer service is top notch and he is always around to answer questions.

Another vote for junior here. I dealt with him on the replacement leafs for my 07 and it was painless.

Fabtech has suspension systems as well as leaf springs for 2000-2004 F350 models. Check them out. I think you might find the right ones for your 2001 f350.
