97f250 hd xlt question?

I have a f250 hd xlt 97 and I just lowered it back down and was
wondering if the backend is suppose to stick up higher than the
front or should there be more leafs in the front springs than just
the 2 ply springs the original owner said he took out.
Thanks,
Lee

Nope, Ford rears are always a little higher, the 2 leaf pack is the stock amount of front springs.

Yes, the rear is supposed to stick up a little higher than the front. I have a 1997 F250 XLT and the rear end is a little higher than the front.
