Rear Leaf Spring Questions

Just bought back my 83 F-250 that I sold to my buddy last year. He took pretty good care of it while he had it. I'm in the process of fixing a few small things, but theres one big one that needs attention before too long.


The rear springs are shot. Both sides are missing 3 of the 5 leaves on the back side (behind the axle) so replacement is in order.


I was wondering if anyone had ever dealt with these guys before. Its a pretty light duty truck, 7600LB GVWR, 4630LB GAWR in the rear, so I figured these would be fine. They're 2450LB springs.

This is the number I have that Bill (Numberdummy) gave me on my first thread with this truck. E0TZ-5560-C


It appears to cross over to E0TZ-5560-E which is on the link I put up above. So based on that I should be good. I think I'll take measurements for S & G.
