Rear springs

I have a chance to pick up some F250 rear springs off a dana rear end! Plan to install on my 68 F100 with a ford 9' rear end. Anyone know if I am going to run into any problems with doing this?

Measure the widths and eye to eye lenghts of your 250 springs. They should be 3" wide and your f100 springs are 2.25" wide. You need different hangers and shackles. Also, when you mount the 250 springs, the alignment nipples on your springs will be .25" wider that each hole on your axle pearches.
