I ordered my truck (‘22 F250, 7.3) with Heavy Service Front Suspension in hopes it would bump me to 5600# springs. Would have got Snow Plow Prep, but it made me add heavier alternator and dual batteries. The HSFS was much cheaper way to just get the springs. Hopefully it will get here mid-April and I’ll find out if the plan worked. (hope it didn’t give me 5990 springs).

From what I understand from the 2022 Camper and Loading Guide (or whatever it’s called), standard for 250 XLT, 4x4, 7.3 would be 5400. 4800 or 5200
Spring rate goes up from there based on added options. I only added elocker, remote start, upfitter switches, and fog lights. Based on the guide those options still had me at standard springs, so I expect the HSFS will get me 5600’s.

I don't think I've seen that guide. This is the first I've heard of a 5400lb spring rate. I have seen some post 4400 and 4800 spring rates. If not a typo, that is very surprising that a gas F-250 would come standard with a higher front spring rate than a comparable deisel 250 that has 700lb more weight on the front. Like I said, my deisel 250, crew cab Lariat Ultimate has 5200. Either way, I think it's safe to say that you won't have to worry about getting the 5990.

I stand correct (thank you), looks like my truck would come with either 4800 or 5200 springs, depending on the chart in the guide (its a little confusing). So, still hoping the HSFS gets me 5600 springs and the truck is fairly level in stock form.

I hope I ordered the right springs. I'm wanting to replace me 5990lb snow plow prep springs with 5200lb tremor springs. The snow plow springs make for a rough ride with the lighter gas engine. Seems like people with the diesel don't mind the ride, probably due to the extra 800lbs the diesel has.
Google searched LC3C-5310-ATA (LAT), but no direct match. Ordered LC3Z-5310-G, which is the only thing I could find with "ATA" mentioned in the description, but doesn't show weight rating, Pretty confusing. 2020 F-350.

I wouldn't expect that you would get the 5990 springs on the 7.3l F-250 w/HSFS, might not even get 5600. If it was a deisel 350, then yes. Not sure what a 7.3l 250 comes with standard, but the HSFS says it's a 1-up spring rate upgrade. My 6.7l 250 came with 5200 springs, I guess that would mean I would have 5600 springs if I had the HSFS package.
