How will my truck sit???

Since I ordered an F-250 supercab longbed 4x4 with the V-10 and the snow plow pack how will it sit? level or slightly nose down? Should I put F-350 blocks in back when I get it? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img]

Should sit pretty level considering that it's an F-250 instead of and F-350 . The 250 has the smaller block in the rear and with the X springs up front I would think that you would almost be on the money being level. My F-350 has the 4 inch blocks and I have the X springs as well (take a look at the first pic on my web site for comparison) and I had a slight rake in the front.

Here is a pic of my truck same as your but mines an auto trans, also with the plow prep package. I added the 4" blocks since the pic was taken but don't have a pic of it.

Yep, the plow package will bring the front end up nice and level with the back end. Don't be worried about the ride either. My truck rides better than the wifes car!! If you need another picture, email me and I will see if I can dig one up.

Look inside the door of the driver side, there should be a sticker that list information about tires, and springs etc...

This sticker is located towards the bottom of the door-post not actually on the door itself. It should tell you what spring code you have. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I've got a Y2K F-250 4x4 with a V-10 and the snowplow package. This is it's third year carrying a plow, so the front suspension gets used. The truck still sits nice and level with the plow off of it. It doesn't ride too bad either. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
