rough ride

I have 01 f-250 regular cab v-10 4x4 with 60,000 miles on it. I was wondering if the snow plow leaf springs makes the truck ride rough compared to the regular springs. My trucks rides rough , so I am thinking about switching the leaf springs, is it worth it ?

Yeah, with a gas motor and a short truck, the ride could be very rough with snowplow springs. If you don't need the capacity and are looking for a more compliant ride, switching the front springs would definitely help. You may even be able to swap with some one on here as it is a common mod to upgrade to the snow plow springs. However, you may lose some ride height.
