[QUOTE="herb101, post: 2309838, member: 27069"] I've been toying with the idea of using some stock pull-offs from my son's truck to get the front end of the L down. I was surprised by how close the spring were to each other! Here's the real data. I pulled the front suspension apart this weekend for some other work, so here is the side-by-side comparison of the L front coil (02) vs. the 97 F150 4.6 auto, 2wd reg cab, short bed flairside.
