I want 2-3 inches all around up. I did add a leafs and a rearch on a 99 SD 250 pickup I had and loved it. Do the excursions take the f350 parts or are the springs to buy different. Thinking W's or X's.

I don't know about Superduty springs, I would think they would fit. The main difference is the mounts on the frame. There lower than the X. What I did was bought front spring hangers from Nixon performance. He has 3" and 5" front sets. I made these myself for my 2000 superduty and is a great way to go. You have the same ride as you did before. The 3" is like a leveling kit. The 5' kit with superduty rear blocks, available at the wreaking yard for cheap. You have to have a sway bar and the more you go up , the more you need tracktion bars or radius rods to stablize the rear axle. If you have good rear shocks you can rotate the rear shock mounts on the axle to compensate for the new heighth.
