Super
Duty Suspension Upgrades
Ford stretched the rear leaf springs 3 inches
in 1999 model, when they switched from Heavy Duty to Super Duty.
This made for a smoother ride, then for 2008, another 8 inches added
to the rear leafs. So now our ¾ and one tons ride like ½ tons, but
they can also sag with maximum payloads and tongue weights.
Another advantage of the suspension products
I’m reviewing are that most can be used together or separate.
SuperSprings or Sway Stops can be used with the other two but not
together. Air Lift air bags for the Ford Super Duty, mount inside
the frame leaving room on top of the factory leaf springs for an
overload like SuperSprings. Scastic’s mount on the end of the
factory leaf spring and Sway Stops fit under the factory overloads
with the Camper Package. Eleven ft slide in truck campers with slide
out rooms, may require them all.
Air
Lift
Inside air bags so you can use SuperSprings too
for heavy slide in campers
SuperSprings
Jack truck up by frame not axle
Sway
Stops
Problem with air bags, is they can keep the truck off it's factory
overloads, using Sway Stops from SuperSprings keeps the overload in
contact which reduces lean on curves with slide-in camper
