From what I can see, looks like the rear axle front spring mount is stock.
Also looks like the rear front spring mount is also stock.

Now need a picture of the rear shackle of the rear spring.
Then a picture of the front shackle of the front spring.

So far I don't see anything that bad, looks like the spring have a bit more arch than normal.

I see the front shackle, looks stock to me as well.

Joe and I were talking on the phone last night.

He though there was something funny about his shackles and hangers.

Well the F 350 should have had the 4" rear block stock from the factory.

F 250 had a 2" block stock.

So from what you saw, 6" lift springs, stock hangers and shackles, 3" body lift.
