Description
The 1980-1997 F-250 & F-350 Coil-Over Conversion Dana 50 Kit removes the front leaf springs and are replaced adjustable King Shock Coil-Over. The stock front leaf springs are the main cause to the rough ride on the 1980-1997 F250s and F-350s. With the King Coil-Over shock paired with the famous Ford TTB, this kit will get your truck to the next level of performance. The Benefit to a Coil-Over shock is the tunability. These shocks will allow for a comfortable ride even through the roughest terrain.
We start by modifying a pair of Dana 50 TTBs to accept our Extended Heimed Radius Arms. This allows you to get rid of those factory front leaf springs that cause the rough ride. The Dana 50 beams can be be extended to either 3″ or 4.5″ over per side. Which increases track width.
The 12″ x 2.5 King Shock can be used with different spring spring rates and valving to dial in for a perfect ride.
Welding required for the shock hoop and lower shock tabs.
