I may just install myself otherwise I will have it done by a pro.
I will post pics soon!
Thanks!
Mike
Good luck and enjoy.

Take a look at Timbrens Suspension Enhancement System (SES) Pick Up Truck Suspension Enhancement Kits from Timbren Industries. Once installed nothing else to do. I had them on my F250, now my F350. They work for me.

I had the timberlins installed on my Silverado 1500 Z71 when I bought my first 5er. I had pulled it once with out them and the rv dealer suggested adding them even though I had the heavy duty suspension. They really do make a difference and smooth out the ride. now with the new crusader with the more aero dynamic front the ride feels even better. My brother went with the air suspension but for me that was too much of a pain constantly adding and taking out air. With the Timberlins the ride is the same all the time.

Consider me a novice. My f250 sags a bit from the weight of my Crusader 295rst. maybe about 3 inches. I would rather not have to deal with the air bags this sounds great . I will see if I can find a dealer to install. Thanks

This is an easy mod. You can purchase them at www.truckspring.com/suspension. Just unbolt the bump stop over the axle and replace with the Timbrens. I took mine off the 250 and put on the 350. Don't get the extra heavy duty, those are for tow trucks and snow plows.

Thanks. I will look under the truck this weekend. I am assuming I will have to jack it up to get the weight off the wheels? Sorry to sound dumb.
