I have a 1995 f150 4x4 and I am going to be lifting it eventually but I am wanting to level it for the time being. My question is what years will work for the springs? I have a set of stock f250 springs from a 2005 but just want to make sure I wont run into any problems.

That'd be guess work to see if those would fit. 80 to 97 f250 coils will. I took the coils out an 05 250 Superduty last summer and they didn't impress me as being remotely close to a 9th generation coil.

^^^Agreed. No way.

Spend $70 on some moog cc824's and do it right. You will need camber bushings and an alignment as well, preferably done by professionals with fancy laser machines.

I'm just wanting a to go a cheap route right now since I will be getting a actual lift in the up coming months. Right now i'm just in need of new tires and would rather get what I want to run with the lift then have to buy tires twice.

Every time you change the springs you have to get an alignment done or ruin your tires.
So you have to make a choice - you want to put bigger tires on you need to pick it up.
Or just put tires that will fit.
Trying to save $70 on springs isn't going to get you where you want to be.
Go big or stay home is the way it's said.

Yeah that makes sense, ill just wait on the lift. Just out of curiosity do f250 leaf springs match up?

Yes I have F250 leafs on the rear of my F150 4x4. 2WD F150's have narrower leafs so they would need to upgrade the hangers and shackles as well.
