Stock springs ???

Can the stock springs be used on other 4x2 F150's? If so how much will they lower it?

I was considering selling my stock springs since I no longer them, to make up a little of the price for the Hotchkis. Theres some guys in my area who I may be able to talk into buying them for a reasonable price.

If I'm not mistaken I think its only an 1 or so. Not very much.

The springs should work just fine on a regular 2x4 f150. I'm running a bell tech 3 inch drop kit thats for a regular f150, so......

You know what I just thought about this after I posted.


Ford may have just installed a taller rear shackle on our trucks to lower it. I would check the shackles on the regular f150 first to compare.

I sold all my old stuff. It will fit all 2wd F-150's. I think it's like a 2" front and 3" rear compared to stock F-150. The Lightning does have different springs from the others. Fronts have a little SVT tag attached to the coil and the rears have SVT painted on the top (right next to made in Mexico).
