Not a huge issue, since you'd only be moving from 29" tires to 31's or 32's, but if you plan on keeping that tire size for a while consider recalibrating the speedo.

Since I hate when people start a thread, then never post pictures of the outcome; I finally had the Moog 824s front springs installed yesterday. The first picture is yesterday morning (Passenger Side) before I took it into the shop. The next pictures are this morning passenger, then driver’s side. I gained a little more on the driver’s side, but overall happy with the results. BFG T/A KO2 31x10.5/15 next.

Stock Springs
Dr Fr 31 1/4 Rear 34
Pass Fr 31 Rear 34

Moog 824 Springs
Dr Fr 32 3/4 Rear 34 (1.75’ gain)
Pass Fr 32 1/2 Rear 34 (1.6’ gain)

Looks great!

If they aren't ordered yet, I highly recommend the cooper discoverer AT3 XLT over the BFG. This friday would be a good day to order them - I know discount tire is having a storewide 15% off sale.

Default Finished Product

Since I hate when people don’t update their threads with finished results;

After wanting more height than the Moog 824s provided. I went with the 2.5 Rough Country suspension lift. After the install, I wanted a little more height in the front, so I ordered spring seat lift washers from Jeff’s Bronco and added them. I went with BFG TA KO2 33x10.50/15s. I couldn’t be happier with the results.

In conclusion, here she is. 1995 F150 2wd 5.0 with lots of performance extras, to include a limited slip rear. Currently, she has 3:55s, but I have the 4:10s sitting in the box, to be installed soon.

Which spring seat lift washers did you use to get the extra lift up front?
