98 leaf springs

just wondering if the leaf springs for an f250 would bolt up to an f150? my leaf springs are wore out, and I'm wondering if I should go heavier, or just put new ones in, and helper leafs?

I was told they would bolt on but I've never actually tried it. I don't see why they wouldn't. I'm guessing its just a couple more leafs.

They should fit, they are f-150 springs with an extra leaf added to the spring pack. As for helper springs I have had good luck with hellwig overload springs.
Here's a link:

if they sit it up higher ull need to tighten up the torsion bars for the front end or ur front end camber will be off and ur tires will wear bad. id take it to a tire shop after u put in the new leafs and get it aligned. theyll set it up correctly
