Question 2wd to 4wd conversion 2002 f350 crew/dually

[denhambrian]

Has any one done a 2wd to 4wd conversion on a 250/350. My question is reguarding the factory leaf mounts. Will the factory brackets bolt in place on a 2wd frame. Also if I chose a 2005 up axle swap will the axle and coils just bolt up.

on the factory leaf spring mounts i'd say yes, but you will need an axle with the swaybar on it because yours is way different,swaybar links,a tracbar to keep the axle centered under the truck,new mount from the frame for the tracbar, a new pitman arm, and new draglink,

for the coil springs i don't know how the twin traction beams would bolt up to your truck, but they do sell conversion kits from leaf to coil

in all honesty i'd just sell or trade yours in, for a 4x4. quicker and probably alot cheaper than converting

I have same proyect-
the 2005 coil springs housing are different. I'm going to install 2006 coil springs from 4x4.
But they have to be modifieds in the first turn to fit in 2002 housing-
if you want 4x4 I think leaf spring is easy -the 2wd frame has the holes for the brackets.
