Hey all, just noticed yesterday that my drivers side rear quarter (the bed) is noticeably lower than the right rear or even the front of the truck. I have airbags but pulled the valve stems out so they were not a factor and...no change. It's the truck in sig with the factory rear springs and a leveling kit in the front. Shocks are good. 177K on the rig.
If they are sprung (worn out, failed, cracked, whatever...) where to get replacements? No, I am not interested in lifting it any higher than it is now. I have a gooseneck trailer that I need to be able to haul around and I barely get under it as it is.
Every SuperDuty eventually sags on the driver's side because of the fuel tank and driver weight. You could swap the springs side-to-side or watch for a good used set on craigslist. Check it over closely for a broken leaf first.
I was thinking about switching out my whole set-up with yours but I see you took them off the market. I was liking the idea of the 4.30 gears for my trailer pulling. The money difference wouldn't allow it right now anyway. Thanks for the input.
Springs really are not that expensive IMO, I'd try a local spring shop first, then the stealership. I wanna say I only paid something like 350-400 bucks for new springs when I resprung my truck a few years ago.
give the driver side airbag a little bit of air to help out with the fuel and driver weight
