I don't have any links, but I can assure you the stock setup on a non HD 04-05 F150 is 4 leaves per pack.

5 is definitely not factory.

Thanks! I didn't think I was sagging that much and always knew the rear was plenty high just never found any info on the springs to figure it out
myself.

I have the Rancho 2.5" quick lift struts, and they are great. i paired mine with the RS5000 series shocks because im cheap, but none the less it rides great. I will say this though, if you think there is any chance what so ever you may want to do a 4" or 6" lift down the road, don,t go this route. you can not stack the spacers on top of these struts. you would have to buy stock replacement struts then do your lift. I though I would be happy with a 2.5" lift so I never considered this. Now I want to go higher and have to buy new OE replacement strut assemblies to do it.
