Thanks! Much appreciated!
That's who i went to this afternoon, 25 miles or so across the corn fields.... Set it up for next week since I'm heading that way into Indiana on a work related trip and can just drop it off (and get breakfast at Rich's across the road too). Good to know I got the right folks to do the job!!


Good, They should do right by you. I grew up in Jamaica (if you know where that is). They are who we always used. Last time Dad was in there, he had a 94 E-150 it had a frame issue, (which they work on), and basically with the age and miles (this was in 2012) the best thing he could do, is make it go away...... which is why he as as 12 F-150.......

What does a new set from Ford cost?

No idea. An OEM full replacement of all hardware runs about $420+shipping from one site I checked (sdtrucksprings.com). LFD will be more presumably, and they also run $100/h. So I'd guess around double the estimate I got? And I don't have the faith with them anyhow...

Well, the body sag is gone! Re-arched the springs, slid another in there and it sits up a bit more. I have to work to reach into the bed, like I used to a long time ago. Good shop, no problems, left the keys in it for me when I came back through later in the day!

RSG,

I'm glad Burke Spring got you fixed up. I've never heard of anyone that I know personally has had any issues with them. Many Farmers, Big Truck, and even the Local Township use them for everything........ glad it was wort the trip a bit East....... just sorry you had to goto Danville....... not one of the locations on the "must see" tour of Illinois.
