another spring question only different
When I bought my X it had a 5.5" superlift kit on it the front is fine but the rear is lifted with blocks and add a leaf. I am going to start towing a camper close to 10,000 lbs. I want to replace my rear springs with only springs(no blocks) to lift the rear to be a little higher when not loaded and sit level when loaded. I want to use f350 springs for the higher weight rating. It is more important to me that it sit level when loaded. No I don't know what the tongue wieght is. I have not purchased the camper yet. I want to get the X all set up first. I'm hoping someone out there has been down the road already. So here is the question does anyone know what lift f350 sping I would need to buy to do this?
Thanks, Duane

I'll tell you this....the F-350 spring certainly won't give you 5.5" over stock. It'll never match the front. Maybe if you added the add-a-leaf to it it may be close.
Could get a set of springs from Superlift to match the front lift and then just add some airbags for towing to keep things level.

You mean springs that would normally be used to lift an F-350?
Might wanna just check on aftermarket Excursion springs from that lift company. In some cases they are "heavier" due to the added mass of the Excursion's body.
