Description

The Tuff Country 28690 EZ-Ride Front Leaf Spring is a 6-inch lift solution built for 1999–2004 Ford F-250 and F-350 4WD trucks with a 351 gas engine. It’s designed to restore and enhance ride quality in lifted applications, giving you a smoother, more controlled highway and off-road experience.

  • Lift Height: 6 inches of front lift tailored for late-90s to early-2000s Ford F-250/F-350 4WD with a 351 gas engine, helping you fit larger tires while maintaining a balanced stance.
  • EZ-Ride Leaf Design: Tapered, snub-rolled and pre-set for a comfortable, planted ride in lifted configurations, reducing harshness on rough roads.
  • Teflon Inserts: Integrated pads minimize noise and squeaking while optimizing ride characteristics for everyday driving and off-road use.
  • Includes Poly Bushings: Poly bushings are included to improve articulation and durability with less deflection over time.
  • Front Position: Specifically engineered as the front spring for lifted F-Series trucks, designed to work with the vehicle’s suspension geometry.
  • Vehicle Fitment: Compatible with 1999–2004 Ford F-250 4WD and 1999–2004 Ford F-350 4WD models equipped with a 351 gas engine.
  • Warranty: Backed by a limited lifetime warranty on leaf springs for long-term confidence in your suspension upgrade.
  • Recommended Pairing: Most applications require two leaf springs for proper installation and balanced ride characteristics.

Benefits: This EZ-Ride front spring kit is engineered to preserve ride quality after lifting, delivering a smoother, quieter ride with less axle bind and improved load handling. The combination of a pre-set, tapered design and Teflon inserts helps reduce ride harshness and squeak, while the included poly bushings support consistent articulation and durability. Ideal for truck owners who want a taller stance without sacrificing daily comfort or on-road manners, and who value a robust, long-lasting suspension component backed by a trusted brand in off-road performance.
