Default Lifting and Wheels?

I have a 1994 f250 with leafs in the front end.

Does anyone know of a brand or leveling kit for the truck? Or can I fit stock 33's on this?

I didn't realize until now how hard it i to find something for leaf front ends. I'm assuming it's a light duty f250 due to this?

Some info would be great.

a simple add a leaf will level it, i believe tough country makes them. also iv heard that mini packs for super dutys will work also.

also your truck should be able to fit 33s aslong as the packs aint worn out.

and your truck is a normal f250. all 4x4 250s had leaf pack front ends, 2wd 250s had coil springs.

Excellent, well. Will a standard add-a-leaf work? (regardless of rear) or does it have to be front specific?

im pretty sure its front specific, since the rear has more of a arch to it. like i said, tough country has a level kit for around $140.

Does leaf on the front indicate my truck is light duty?

Also any idea on a part number perhaps? I went on their site and it keeps giving me some instructions to a dodge lift after I try and click it/ look into it.

Then I can hopefully track a dealer in Canada to get this pup on the way

No. The opposite actually. F150s 2wd and 4x4 and f250/350 2wd had coil sprung front suspension.
F250 and f350 4x4s were all leaf sprung front suspensions.

Ford used leaf springs in the front of there 4x4 heavy duty trucks until 2004.
