F-350 Blocks?

I here some chatter about F-250s with F-350 blocks in them, I am assuming that this is to obtain more lift in the rear but how about the front, just a leveling kit or something else, 1 ton springs maybe? Where is the best place to get F-350 blocks?

It is correct I have a neighbor with a 2007 F-250 and he bought F-350 blocks from the dealer and put them in and then put a leveling kit on the front.

Leveling kit in front. F250 and F350 use same springs all the way around, only difference is if you get the front with the snow plow springs.

Blocks

I have an '03 F-250 XL (extra cab 142" wheel base) with the Plow springs in front (code X).
It sat low in the rear so I did the F-350 blocks in the back.

Easy job and looks perfect now. Can't tell it from an F-350 except for the badges.

For the 142" wheel base trucks, you need the blocks that have a slight taper in them.

Hmmmm With all I have seen from teh 250 owners wanting the 350 blocks....I may have a set eventually to get rid of. I have a friend that has a set of airbags for me, I just need to get off my butt and put them in.

I'd be interested in your blocks and U bolts.

Just a note it's not recommended to reuse ubolts.

I'll post back to this thread when I get the chance to put on the airbags....NO garage so I have to wait for the snow to melt and the ground to dry up enough to crawl underneath.

i did it on my truck

i put a leveling kit up front and 350 blocks in the back. it looks awesome


i got the blocks from a and kit from one of our sponsors (i think directfordparts.com). I installed everything myself it wasnt to difficult.

here is a thread that should be able to help you figure out what block you need
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/6...ht=blocks+rear

as for the leveling kit i replaced my entire front leaf springs with roughcountry leveling springs. I prefered not to just add a spring pack because my leafs were worn out, but that is up to you.

if you have any more questions just ask
