Maybe they didn't do this stuff before, cause I swear my 2003 diesel f250 sags in the front and gaser f250s don't. I did buy additional leaves for my front (to level it out), but never got around to installing them. (anyone want them by the way?)

I think it's interesting too. A friend and I bought "almost" the same truck (2005s), except his is an F350 with PSD and mine is an F250 with V10. I measured front and rear height, from center of the axle to the fender and the V10 sat one inch higher in the front than the PSD and one inch lower in the rear (he had a heavy 5th wheel hitch installed in his bed). Based on what I "see" (have only measured a couple PSDs) the PSDs sit one inch lower than the same truck with V10, but who knows. Also, when I say the trucks are "almost" the same, mine has two-tone paint an upfitter switches and his has a moonroof, those are the differences which I can't imagine affect ride height.
