I found the spring rate codes on my door sticker and found out I have what I am led to believe are the softest damn springs and torsions that Ford makes. It says I have "L" for torsions and "H" for the leaf packs. Do these codes hold true?? I have a '96 Limited with air-ride and the terd sits so damn low it drives me nuts... especially since it's a 4x...I really want to get the new Superlift but during the next 20 years while I'm trying to save up for it I was going to just crank the torsions and drop some add-a-leaf and shackles in the back. If the spring codes are in fact true, then I have to go junk yard hunting and find some torsions and springs with a "B" rating just to even pull that off, right? Anyone got a little hope out there for me?:confused:

c'mon folks, i know there's a guru out there who has an answer for me....please....anybody???
 












thanks brother....but does that mean that my springs are too soft to get much lift out of them, i still can't figure that out....worst case is i'll just have to find out the hard way, huh??
 






Just try it and see. I have the 'weakest' torsions, but of course I have a 2wd sport.
