Re: again cummins swap

Re: Problem With '88 2.3L

Re: stronger for diesel: leaf or coil

Re: stronger for diesel: leaf or coil

hmm ok, that makes it easier to choose then. since I'd be running f150 front axle, with the stock springs how much lift would i be getting? im aiming for 9"-10", so would i probably need lift springs?
