I measured my 70 and 76 F-250 crews non-flexo springs at 2 1/4" x 51 1/2". My 79 F-250 non-flexo springs were 3" x 55". You would have to change the spring hangers also if using Dent springs.

1973/79 F100 2WD & 1975/79 F150 2WD: 2 1/2" wide .. 24" > > eye bolt < < 31 1/2"
No F-O-M (Flex-O-Matic) after 1972. The Flex-O-Matic compensator uses 3 unique bushings...only a few are available NOS
