Not quite sure why you would want f550 springs to prevent sagging!
Who told you they would sag ?
just put snow plow springs in the front!
The ride is going to be harsh.
There was a person on here that wanted a softer ride with his 05 ,maybe you guys could swap springs

5C3Z-5310-EA (5200 lb SPRING)
5C3Z-5310-DA (5600 lb SPRING)
5C3Z-5310-CA (6000 lb SPRING)
5C3Z-5310-BA (6500 lb SPRING)
5C3Z-5310-AA (7000 lb SPRING)
I believe that these are what you are looking for, the plow spring in a diesel is the 6000lb so I believe the 7000lb is the 550 springs you are looking for.

refuse.... which spring is the diesel without the plow package? any idea how much the springs are?

I'm thinking of buying a spring compressor and putting the nice soft springs in once I get through the snow season.... and my F250 rides like a damn rock... it must have the 7000 lbs springs in it! the guy at the dealership told me he's gotten 250's in with 550 springs!

I think that the 5600lb is the plow spring without the diesel but I'm 100% sure on that. Last time I checked they were about $35-$45 a piece not counting freight if ordered on-line but there shouldn't be any freight ordering through your dealer.
