I think I confirmed they're X code, don't remember exactly. it's stock (Snow Plow package). The ride is like floating on a cloud... of boulders.

I have a 13 f250 gas. I put the Diesel front coils in and the ride is HORRIBLE. I put them on to help with the plow. It sits normal unless I put a load in the bed. Then it shoots for the moon. Sorry no pic

My '06 has the 6000# springs. The ride is decent - it *is* a truck.

I have the Camper and Tow spring packages from the factory. I think its the "X".


Super Cab... rides real hard. EMPTY. I run 45 psi in tires to help ride EMPTY.

Running empty with X springs lets you know you're in a real truck as the suspension rarely is activated or loaded to absorb the unladen vehicle.

Once I installed a winch bumper, it smoothed out the bounce significantly.

X springs are an option for those who are going to use it or will get beat to death when unloaded.

I believe I also have the X springs on my snowplow package and riding on a cloud of boulders is a nice way to sum it up. If you don't plan on doing a lot of a lot of hauling or putting a lot of weight in the truck, I wouldn't bother. I just came back a few weeks ago from MS with a 27 cubic foot side by side refrigerator and a oversized stove and a bunch of misc items, probably close to 1500 lbs in the bed, the truck didn't squat and inch and drove like it was empty.

My original window sticker states "Camper Package & Rear Stabilizer Bar" under 'optional equipment'.
I was hoping to share the code but it's not listed.

hmm, just noticed at the bottom it lists "Other Optional Equipment" for $735 but doesn't say what it references to

Regarding rear bounce, in the back of the bed I load 400# of sandbags to activate the one-ton suspension. Functions just enough to do the job.
