350 Overload Springs
Well I was wondering, what exactly you would need to do to put overload springs off a F350 on a F250. I would like to do this for when I start 2WD sled pulling. So thanks guys, much appreciated.

AFAIK the overloads are the same on SRW 250/350's. DRW are a narrower spring. Perches, spring, and spacer. I swapped to air bags on my 97 and like them alot better. I know when I do the springs on the 96 dump truck I'm going air bags.

Well I know some trucks have the extra shorter springs on top then there ae stops on the frame, thats what I want, and I plan on air bags also, but I may to a DRW conversion if I get the money I know where a F350 is that will do me well. So yeah.

I was looking at my 96 F250 PSD (supercab LB) without overloads and my dads 97 F350 PSD (crewcab LB) with overloads and all the holes for the frame brackets are there. Looks like it would be a fairly easy swap. Must say I have never seen them touching even with the camper on it.
