I'd get Bilstiens but make sure of what you want to do first. If I had to do it all over, I'd have changed to F350 springs then get the shocks that work for the F350. A great upgrade is to V code and B code springs that come form an F350. If your Ex wanders, the Landyot Radius Rods work.

The thing is prewired for a brake controller. You have to insert the fuse and supply the controller. Recommend Tekonsha P3

I SUSPECT you have the 3.73 gears.

cool, I had heard of the f350 springswap making a huge difference, not sure how long springs are supposed to last but when I hit an exceptionally largebump it seems to bottom hard metal on metal. any links to the f350 springs would be appreciated. I dont feel any wander even towong so I guess thats ok

I looked for the cooler and I cant see it. there one behind the license plate but I think thats for the steering. I see lines going in front of the radiator but no cooler, almost likes its just a loop of steel lines.

This cooler would be between the radiator and intercooler. Follow the lines that go from the trans to the radiator to the trans cooler. A good way is to take off the plastic cover at the top and look down. It is held down by a bunch of push pins. This is where the hood catch comes up.
