  • Lift Height: Front springs deliver a 4" lift over factory height for improved clearance and accommodation of larger tires on 1980–1997 Ford F-250 4WD (gas engine).
  • EZ-Ride Leaf Design: Tapered, snub rolled and pre-set leaves engineered to maximize comfort and road feel in a lifted, positive-arch setup.
  • Teflon Inserts: Integrated to reduce squeaking and fine-tune ride characteristics for a quieter, more consistent ride.
  • Poly Bushings Included: Comes with bushings to simplify installation and maintain proper alignment and dampening.
  • Front Application: Specifically designed for the front suspension of 4WD F-250 pickups, ensuring a proper fit and reliable performance.
  • Quantity: Sold as a single leaf spring; most applications require a pair for full front-end coverage.
  • Warranty: Backed by a limited lifetime warranty on leaf springs for lasting confidence in your lift setup.

With the EZ-Ride technology, this front leaf spring kit elevates your vehicle’s stance without sacrificing ride quality. The combination of a tapered, pre-set arch and low-friction Teflon features minimizes noise and improves articulation over rough roads or rocky trails. The result is a more balanced ride, better wheel travel, and a confident driving experience whether you’re tackling off-road adventures, hauling payloads, or simply cruising daily. This setup is ideal for Ford F-250 owners who want a durable, purpose-built 4" lift that maintains steering feel, ride comfort, and long-term reliability.
