That's the same part that has been used on 05-14 or 16 F250s and F350s. I searched and found these available on Ebay:




The proof is in your statement that says it did the job. How did the truck feel before and after the bushing? Was it loosy before the bushing?

If others have had pre and post spacer block alignment checks could you please post your individual results? I would hope that the margin of error for alignments is minimal, but it seems as if different people are getting different results.

Epic oh yea im glad I done it,im sure it would've been ok without doing it but now the specs are exactly the way it came from the factory now.
The steering feels better and returns to center easy like before.

Leveled F-350

Found this at Larry H. Miller, in UT. Has a 2" spacer installed under the front spring bucket. Also has Pro Comp dual stabilizer.

That doesn't look like it would clear the 37s. It looks like 35s might not fit. Hmmmm. Why would they go to the trouble and leave the tires stock? Which LHM is it? I live in UT also.

In Sandy. Still around back, so they may have bigger plans for it. It will definitely fit 35s! Has 275/65x20s on it now, basically 34s.

Thanks! This is consistent with what PMF Suspension is saying also, that it is the same caster shim as prior MY. FWIW, they also have Icon replacement springs available now for those that don't want to use a spacer.

Interesting. Icon said that they had one up on the rack Thursday or Friday last week but no ETA. I'll wait for their response...their website still just says '05 and up.
