Hello fellow Powerstrokers,
Just as the title states, looking for advice. I have on 01 F250 with a broken rear spring. While talking about it to a guy I know he offered up a brand new set from an 01 F350 for free. Seems he bought the truck new in 01 drove it home and pulled them off for a lift kit and they had been sitting in his garage since.
So now I am going to install them on my F250 and see posts that say reuse the u bolts and some that say don't. I guess I am looking for a general consensus of the popular opinion. And another question is are they the same length.
Then while I am at it i figured I should put new shocks all the way around. Here I am looking for what brand, type , style or otherwise has been a biggest bang for the buck for the superduty. I would really appreciate any real world opinions from real world users. I use the truck to push snow and pull a 12000lb GVW trailer. Its not a grocery getter but I will use it for that too.
Thanks in advance
