Rear suspension upgrade? ‘69 F250
I’m looking at a CV swap for the front end of my F250. Not to lower it as much as to improve handling. What’s the best idea for the rear? Four link? S550? QA-1 kit? What say you all? Budget does matter too. What’s the best “bang for the buck “?

cheers.

Are you still going to use it as a truck, hauling heavy stuff or just a cruiser?

Mostly light loads. I figure I may add heavier springs to get a bit more load.
