Missing Helper Springs
Do all SDs come with helper springs? Mine has none, why would someone remove them? I'm guessing air bags, I assume it was used for towing a 5th wheel, as the rails are still there.
If that is the only reason you all can think of as well, would it make the most sense to install another as opposed to replacing the helpers? Or is it no big deal to leave it as is?
As always "thank you for your support"

Hello Clay, I believe I need to order a CPS from you. And I guess while I have you on the phone, I'll need... (originally by 00 Dave)
a Pacbrake air spring system, and um an A&E, and let's see, a stainless MBRP exhaust system, and how about a 38R just for good measure

It was an option on the 250's I owned two, one with (gas), one without.(diesel)
It was also an option on the 350's IIRC it was part of a camper package.
My 99 350 DRW has them, my bosses 01 f350 DRW does not.

Wow Thanks Jim, awesome offer. Also I don't even have the stops on mine, so I would have to find those as well.
If I decide to get airbags, would I have to remove them? I can't tell by looking at the pictures I've seen.
Why did you remove yours Jim?

i took them off when i did the drop on my truck
im pretty sure u can have air bags and overloads ... the bags mount on the spring perch tops so i should not matter
if it doesnt work id be willing to help u make a mount so that they will, im currently engineering a mount for a used system a friend bought
