Ok so I took my lift of 8 in off my 96 f250/350... it has a d60 up front.... I put a set of stock springs back on it... thought it had helper springs but its a set of doubled up springs..... so it rides rough as hell..... was thinking bout a rsk.... but wanted to.see if its worth it... id probably go with the bolt in pmf kit .... was worried about intercooler clearance tho..... any pros or cons or advice or picks id love some input..... also has any one did sd axle swaps? Found a roller with 373 good front end and rear end all the springs for a grand....

 

do you have the 250 or 350 springs up front?

You dont wanna run 250 springs on a d60.
Will beat the hell out of you.

 

Honestly I dont know if they are 250. Or 350 .. thought they had a helper but found out they are doubled up.... better to find 350 springs ? Or do the tsk sd springs ?

 

The PMF kit fits just fine with an IC, but you need SD springs. They have 2 options, SD springs with OBS D60 or SD springs with SD D60.

 

Awsome I have a set of sd springs.... was debating on doing a swap and run sd front and rear end as a well.... or just keep as is and add rsk with sd springs.... was going to go from 411 to 355 how do you like the 373 ? What kinda mpg you seeing ? Arpms at 70 ? Thanks

 

I did a 2.5 RSK on my truck. Ride is definitely way smoother. I'd definitely do it again but I would do SD X code springs on the front next time. If you do the front springs you should also do the rears as well.

 

You would do x code over v code ? Why for ? Dose it matter if the sd spring is a 250 or 350 ? X code springs are 6000 lbs where v are 5500 ? Right

 

I really like the 3.73s, right about 2200 rpm @ 70. I typically get around 15-16 mpg.

 

I don't think 250 vs. 350 matter for the fronts; just the spring code. I used U-codes and a set of 350 rears with overload springs.

 

I find the ride of the V codes a little too soft and the recommended Bilsteens are not enough to stiffen the ride and I don't want to do duals.

 

i called the place off skys site bt sales I think new v code springs was 145 each and x code was 100 each b code rears was 120 same on c code for the rear.... so iam thinking x code dronts and c code rears like bob suggested

 

what year trucks are the x code front on

 

Iam not sure I called a place in pa.... and got front and rear springs sent to me for 500.00 bucks... I think they are 99 up for a snow plow

 

Holy crap!? Jason is back now too!? Wow, I really need to pay better attention to what's going on here...

That's all, I'm no real help with the RSK, lol.

 

We may change that situation one of these days!!
