F250 with 350 Springs?

K I searched and just wanted to make sure of this.

My F250 has an overload and small block. It seems to be able to handle a **** load of weight, Ive put 4200 in bed so far.


Anyways, someone told me that I might have 350 springs/running gear under it. Maybe it was special ordered?

How do I check? Can I just run the Vin and see the options or should I could springs?

Thanks

The overload spring is an option, but the main spring pack is the same for both F250 and F350. The only difference between the two is a 2" block in the F250 and a 3.5" block in the F350.

You can get a 250 with the exact same gvwr package as a 350. Only difference will be the block.

Just to make sure you two are talking about the same blocks...

cartmanea is talking about the block in between the spring and the axle. F250 has a 2" block and F350 has a 3 5/8" block.


Blitanicle99...there is also a little small block in between the leaf spring and the overload spring too.(more if a spacer). Just want to make sure you were talking about the same block he is.

Like he said, some F250's came with overload springs on them too.
