Sagging bad with gooseneck

[qcfarmer]

I have the dual controller but like said, I use it for front and rear control.

I have always wondered why so many people go the 250 route vs the 350?? They used to be pretty much the same price.

 

[Tree Trimmer]

really, unless you get a dually, there isnt much difference.

 

[morepower02]

Springs and blocks?

 

[Tree Trimmer]

different blocks, though springs should be the same.

 

[Dzchey21]

Springs are the same

However for 2011 up the overload springs aren't available on the f250 without a Camper package.

 

[Cratos]

even with the camper and tow packages I added air bags.to gte it level with my GN

some people dont want the long bed

 

[Dzchey21]

You can get a f350 with a short bed...

Yeah I'm not saying that the overloads are great just stating the difference.

That seems extreme. I know they softened the springs on the new trucks for ride quality but this is too much. 250 or 350 should not be squatted that much. Ive honestly never seen one that bad, and Ive hauled some serious loads before. With a 250 and 350.

Springs are not the same they just don't put as many springs as they used too the went to thicker springs. They still hold weight well but they squat still. My uncles '11 squats with a 4 horse with two 4 ft midtacks. Seems like fords doin it to make you buy the bigger trucks lol he even has the dually. My bosses both have the 450s and they rarely squat.

 

[Meniacal_Mark]

Here ya go

Holy monkey nutz! :jawdrop: your truck looks like a motorcycle with a fat chick on the back.

 

[Cratos]

thats why I orderd mine with tha tow and camper packages but still had to add air bags when fully loaded .

 

[WoodBoy]

I'd be much happier with buying a good riding truck and a kit (airbags) to level it when loaded than having a truck with a springs setup to keep it from squating and having a mule and wagon ride when unloaded

I have ti agree with you on that. And I'm betting the load it takes to squat that much would squat any truck to the point of air bags

 

[Zmann]

Agreed
My GMC 2500 HD would squat the same if not more than My F250

Bags are just the best way to go both My trucks had them after the first time I loaded em up and saw the squat LOL

 

[Dave]

Whats the GVWR sticker on the door say?

My FIL's 12 does squat that bad with 22k on it.

But hes got factory overloads with the camper package

 

[TXGLASSMAN]

i have factory over loads as well and mines never looked like that and its been severly over loaded, but nothing like that. i havent even seen another 6.7 sqaut as bad as this one

 

[Dzchey21]

That's why I was shocked my Camper literally didn't even move he truck, it's only 26 foot but still
