Anyone lower the 17s yet? Do the 4400lb springs still work?


Anyone have measurement of the cab height on a stock F250 4x4?

The grey compound truck has 4400 springs and no rear block? Wow I didn't know that, I thought it would sit way lower.....I'm shocked now too, it does sit real high

Im really glad you started this thread because I plan on reverse leveling my 17 or 18 when I get one.

Crap. So there's no way it'll be as low as my 15?

So the specs state 82in so 6ft 9in.

So being they have a 34in tire. Dropping to 32s drops the truck 1in. 4400 lb springs and block ****** 2in. I MIGHT hit the 6ft6in I need. Fingers crossed.

Worst case I deal with parking the truck somewhere else in CA. We get a new office in April which will have taller parking.

That's about the best I can do, I screen-shoted their walk round video of the truck. Not great but you get the idea.

This truck is reverse leveled with stock front coils I believe. Looks nose high for sure.

The wheels/tires are hideous imo but you get the idea of what the front looks like with the rear block pulled.

I think 4400 or 4800 front coils would make it look great.

I put the PMF 1.5" tall block in the rear in place of the factory 3.125 block on mine. I am still over an inch taller in the back than up front but it looks a million times better than stock (I parked next to a stock one tonight while getting diesel).

It wouldn't go in my garage the way it was but it does now. I will get some pictures in a few weeks after i finish my PTM, I picked up some bumpers off of a platinum last week just need to get my other parts so I can paint it all blue.
