I am seeing people her using this mini spring pack , which i assume is home made, correct me if im wrong ... isnt that like using a block to lift the front?? verses a safer complete spring setup?

The spring pack is made by Donahoe Racing. Since the spring pack uses gradually longer leaves it is more stable under the truck. EDGE products are some of the best quality.

Also mini spring packs are bolted to the springs by the center bolt, and blocks are not.

I was looking at the edge system. I have a 04 F250 Crew Cab. How is the 3inch kit?? I like the looks of it. I would like to reuse my 315's from my dodge. Anybody here of good or bad about this?

skyjacker also makes a mini spring pack with a trackbar drop bracket for about the same price as the edge kit...the mini pack is essentially a very long lift block, the length and the fact that they are spring leafs eliminates the block characteristics that are dangerous on the front axle
