F350 4x4 spring question
I have done quite a bit of reading here about 250/350 spring codes and rates.I have a 2000 reg cab f350 that i thought sat unusually low.Because of body damage repair,the id sticker in the left door jamb is gone so I am not sure what springs it has.Because of broken leafs in both rear springs,I found an ad on craigslist for a full set of v/b springs and bought them.The parts number on the fronts reads 1c34ada, which comes up to v springs on the charts. However,my trucks front springs part number is yc35akb.By the charts these are Excursion springs? My truck also did not come with overload springs.Is this possible for a diesel 350?Anybody have any ideas whats up with this truck? My Dad has a 2001 350 psd with x/b springs and it towers over mine.

My old man was able to get a set of 350 springs with overloads and the brackets off a wrecked 350 from a junkyard. I believe he paid $160 for the whole set. This had the 4" blocks with them too. Check your springs in the rear and see which blocks are in it too, that would make a big difference. V codes in the front would be OK, X would be better, especially with a diesel, X's will get it up where it belongs. You could also do a leveling kit with the V's in front and 4" blocks in the rear to get it up there.
