HD Leaf Springs vs. Stock
I'm looking to replace my broken rear springs on my '08. I'm looking into installing the 4/1 HD springs rated at 2400lb. From SDtrucksprings link: http://www.sdtrucksprings.com/index....ducts_id=16914
I know these will raise the rear a little, but how much will they impact the ride of the truck?

copying and pasting a review from that link:
"SD. Thank you for a great product. From the very pleasant lady who helped me with my order to your customer service. Just awesome. I installed the 43-1555HD springs in my 2007 F150 and what a huge difference. The ride is far better than the stock springs and so is the handling.. No leaning into the corners and a nice firm ride. Just what I would expect from these springs. Have referred your company to some friends and what they saw impressed them. Thanks again."
I would assume they will be stiffer, but not to the point of being annoying. As far as raising the truck, I don't you'll actually get a "raise", but the sag from the old suspension will be removed.
