I'd order for a f-350, as they'll probably be a stiffer spring. I'm actually going to be redoing the front springs (rear springs out of an 89 f-350 4x4), well essentially just swapping out the overloads in favor of a set of overloads that are thicker and with more arch to level the packs out along with level the truck out then i'm also swapping the springs to moce the front axle ahead to give a better dshaft angle.

Yeah cutts, whenever you get the chance, i'm in no big hurry for them leafs, the truck they'll be going in still has to have a motor and tranny put in it . Oh i'm still interested in that steering box as well.

Oh yeah, with the worn out rear leafs i used up front i got roughly 4" of lift.

for the rear of 73-97 4x4's(except "highboys") all lift springs are the same....in other words a 4 inch leaf for the back of a 74 f-150 will be the same pack used for a 96 f-350...same part #..for skyjacker, superlift and pro comp
