I don't know but you might want to check with a local spring shop to see what they'd charge to make up whatever it is you need. It's been quite a few years since I've bought some but the last time I checked the price on new springs was cheap enough that I didn't feel like it was worth messing around with used.

i called a local spring shop and they said it was around 750 for new spring i thought that was a bit high if you ask me

i know u cant use late 99-03 as the spring is a different shape they are more sqaure as where mine are a little more round. I would wait for a tech but im positive it would need to be for the obs.

Wow! I would say so. Was that installed? I"m pretty sure that I've bought a full set of individual leaves for both sides for around $200.00 . That was a while ago though.

The only SD springs you can use on a OBS are the rears..B codes work great. You can use SD springs on the front with a D60-RS kit.

any year rears will work, I just put 06 350 springs in my Bronco. Only modification was enlarging the shackle bolt holes for the larger super duty bolts, and I needed to trim off about 1/2" from the bottom leaf so the shackle could move

ok thank guys for the info they are the rears that need replaced

ok i bought some leafs from a 95 f350 used cause i got a good deal on all four but the have an extra leaf in the front and a spacer and an extra leaf in the rear will i need to get longer Ubolts or will the one i have work what else might i possibly need. sorry for the dumb questions.

Depends on how much thread you have left.

 

[C-STROKER]

i dont have much i think i will just go buy some new ones there not that pricey

 

[C-STROKER]

one more question on these dam leaf springs. how helpfull is the helper spring is it worth buying new u bolts for or should i just tost it and use the 5 normal leafs.

 

[mwalsh]

that depends on what you carry or tow, if you load it up heavily you might want to keep them. I pulled them off since I cant imagine ever needing them in my application

 

[C-STROKER]

i was thinking about getting a cab over camper or maybe a travel trailer, should i keep them.
