3/98 door sticker...will 99-04 level kit fork?

[redboost10]

i have a 3/98 ford f-350 powerstroke. same body style as the 99-04, straight front axle of course, front leaf springs, etc.

i found a add-a-leaf level kit for 99-04, i just wanted to make sure that "98" and 99-04 are the same suspension. ive searched all over. thank you.

The truck you have, although built in '98 is called an early '99. Most companies just start with '99 to eleminate some confusion with the split year. If it is a SuperDuty, '99 parts will work.

ok, yeah its a superduty, thank you for the quick reply. may i email you the picture of the level kit just to get your opinion and see if everything i need is there or not?

[pipelayerjdh]

Absolutly, I'll take a look at it.

the early 99 is made pre 4/99

the difference is the early has square ubolts smaller track bar bolts and diffrent pitman arm.

but most leveling kits will have springs and shocks which will work all 99-2004

just ubolts and track bar bracket if equipped you will need to watch for.

ok yeah, i found a add-a-leaf level kit and 4 rancho shocks, it was off a '04. the guy said, the track bar is all i have to watch for, but he has the '04 track bar bracket that he will give me. will this work? thank you for the replies

you wont be able to use the track bar bracket unless you get a track bar from a 99.5-04 and redrill the hole on the axle bracket.

so dont worry about that

the ubolts on the early 99 are square so the ubilts wont work either, but with a single add a leaf you can usually reuse the stock ubolts. just add some loctite to be safe.
