Like what was said on pirate the f250 rears might not be that bad mine was a mix of f250 main with f150/bronco/f250 mixed for my disiered lift/ flexeness. If i would have kept the leaf setup I was thinking about trying a f350 main out of an obs truck and mixing and matching. And they do die over time, and a big one get the front shock towers out of an mid 80's to 96 so you can use a eyelet stile shock.



to show they do die with lots of flex this is over a couple year progression.

Every inch of a 14" travel shock




and not exactly 67-72 f250 chassis but they are 37 and it is a 67 with those leafs with a 460

Whats the length of the OBS rear springs? Eye to eye? Or are you still running the highboy main leaf?
