Spring swap?!
Need advice/opinions. I have a 2000 Ford X V10 with D load rated tires. I am not looking to change tires anytime soon. At this point I am just needing advice on springs. No other Mods on truck. My front springs are stock and they are shot. Just bought a 31 foot travel trailer need to get the handling of the truck under control in order to haul the camper. I have a reece 12k lb weight distribution with dual friction sway bars. Truck is sitting 1/2 inch lower in the rear with the camper hooked up but the front did not change. I am debating what size springs to put on. I am looking for reccomendations. I need opinions from people who are familiar with this situation.

How are the rear springs without the TT hooked up? If they are not that bad I would install the Roadmaster Active Suspension. The RAS will give a little lift in the rear and help with towing. If installing yourself the cost is around $290.00.

If you shop around you can find them closer to $200. Think I paid just a touch over $200 including shipping.
Easy install. Took me just over an hour.
