Broken Rear Leafs

I have broken rear leaf springs. I was thinking about beefing up and going with 250 springs. Does anyone know the best place to get them. Looking for a good price.

if you want it to ride really rough go for it man.

what i did to my f150 is just get overload springs put on top of the leafs. they allow me to haul a lot more weight and dont change how the truck rides. also cheaper than getting f250 springs

I'm not too crazy about the Sig setup, but oh well.
Yeah the 250 leaf packs will ride rough. It will also raise the rear up a couple inches and make your truck look more raked.

You might want to check out the TSB's because I am pretty sure there is one on broken rear leaf springs.

TSB's are Technical Service Bulletins issued by the manufacturer about common problems they have noticed. I just remember seeing a TSB relating to rear leaf springs cracking. I will look today to get the whole article.
