I just was given a pile of springs and things pictured below. They came off a 2000 F350 Crew Diesel Dually.
I trailer often and I would love a tighter tail !
I'm a pretty good mechanic and would not have a problem changing the springs, but I would like to know what I have? What I might need to install them (u-bolts, blocks,spring paks).
I would love 3.5 - 4.5" of lift! I'm totally stock now. 2000 limited 4x4 V10 with 35" tires
I live pretty far from the ford store so I want to reduce my trips.

The truck you got these springs off of what was the "SPR" spring codes from the white decal on the drivers door jamb?

I don't know and can't find out. My buddie owns a trash hauling business and all were pulled from one of his customers. He saw the truck they came off , it was 2000 f-350 dually crew cab diesel.
I called a while ago and the Ford Guy told me they were "V" code. ( I might be wrong).
My X has 90K and it rides like a whale! Too soft. If I can't get lift at least it could tighten it up a bit. Seems F-350 springs should do that.

The front set of springs I'm they can be utilized but for the rear set I'm not sure about if they're outside of A or B codes.

I don't know, I bet there is a X'r that can cross ref, the part numbers that are clearly visible in the first and second pic (click on them and it will take you to a really large version).
Where I live I have notning but huge Corporate Ford Dealers. And getting the personal touch is out of the question!!

I would install them.
You cannot use those helper or overload springs pictured but the others should bolt right up.
The only thing I would do for the rear springs is measure the length and width of yours to make sure they would fit. The dually use a Dana 80 axle and the perches may be different.
That'll be one bad Excurison when you're done.
