250 to 350 conversion swap

Whats the easiest way to make a 250 a 350. I want the higher stance, but i don't need a big lift. I just might consider some slightly bigger rims and tires someday like 33's, but mostly i want my truck to sit up a little more.

you could add an add a leaf to level out the front... will raise it around 2"... the only diff from the 2 is the rear springs... diff trucks came with diff optoins... when i was stock my buddys 250 was higher than mine and both of them were stock... just different years...

yeah i have noticed that before. Well i know that my truck has the extra overload spring that banana's up. I know that is standard on the camper pkg, but i have cab lights and i don't think those came with the cmp pkg, maybe i have a heavier gvw pkg on mine. It did have a uni-goose hitch in it when i bought it.

Depending on the GVW package you have the only difference is the 250 has a 2 inch block in the rear the 350 is a 4 inch block.

I have the exact same springs in my 350 as my father in law does in his 250
