I need to find some rear springs for my 97 F250, preferably junkyard. Problem is mine are 55" long eye to eye, and I fawked up when I did my rear shackle flip and my shackle is 90* vertical. :shaking: Who makes a spring that is about 58" eye to eye? I know chevies have 63" ones, but those are way to long to work. My ass end rides like a brick now, so I wanna put in some slightly longer springs to get the shackle at a nice angle and help smooth out my jarring ride. I know this is a truck and I want it to ride like a truck, not a car, but my kidney's can only take so much...

well you could move the rear bracket :rolleyes:

















or I know my bronco has 57" springs.

I think all 73-79 1/2 ton are the same.
