Have a Coil spring question
My fronts on my 85 F150 4X4 are worn out bad. The rear already has F250 springs with an overload and the F350 4X4 block and to make it ride level i'm replacing the fronts with Rough Country Level Kit springs. Which state 1.5-2" over stock and no need for drop brakets. Yes i will get it aligned and see if i really need them and if i do i will probally go ahead and do a 4-6" .
But my question is will it ride soft with these springs? I really want it to ride a little harsher than it does now. The back is like a rock with 7leaves+ 1 overload on each side. but the front seems too soft for me.
Anyone had any experience with these? I drive my truck to highschool and use it on a farm. But i baby it, wash it too much and really paranoid about the little things even though i have pulled 7X the rated(right) capacity with it.
4.10's already, 4.56's if i go with a bigger tire, and getting painted this winter.
Does anyone know about these springs?
thanks

yes 8.8 yuk i know. Only hauled that heavy once.
Before collage next summer i am going to buy a F350 4X4 7.3 5spd that i will keep as a daily driver and heavier hauling. For really heavy we have some Class 6-8 Trucks on my buddy's farm.
I am restoring the 85 now. And i want to put a 8lug 10.25 or another 8 lug outback. and change the outers on the front to 8lugs.
Thanks for the prayer, i know i need it.
Well thanks for the answer.
Thank you
