Switch Possible???

Hey guys thanks for all the help on my last problem. A guy i work with has a 2000 F350 SD 7.3... His brother is giving him 1.5ton springs for his rear end. He told me i could have his old springs if i wanted them. My question is are they going to match up on my late 99 F250??? and if so what will i need to do? thanks

If I am not mistaken the difference in the 99-01 F250, and F350 SRW is the size of the blocks under the springs. The F250 had 2 inch blocks and the F350 had 4 inch blocks. But to be sure check your, and his build sticker(lower drivers door pillar) and look at the rear spring code and see if they are the same.

Rear springs are identical, it's only the block sizes that make any difference.

f250 and f350 have the same spring..the f250 is a couple leaf less compared to the f350..but the length is the same.they will interchange..just measure the leaf from hanger to hanger...
