Sulastic Spring

I have been looking for sulastic springs to put on the front of my 1996 F250 7.3L and haven't had luck. They make them for 1998 and up, does anyone know the difference and why they wouldn't fit on my 1996? Something that I could adjust and make it fit?

It probably has something to do with the Dana 50 TTB. The 99 and up trucks use a solid front axle. If you find sulastics for a 92-96 F350 that would be a clear indicator of the difference as the 350s of this vintage also use a solid front axle.

The 99+ SDs also have a longer spring.

You could do an SAS and use an RSK, then you could use the springs.
