| For several years now, F-150's have had the rear shocks outside of the leaf springs. This moves the leaf springs inward 3 inches on each side and makes the truck ride better, for the Owner who thinks he needs a truck but complains about the harsh ride. City folks expect an F-150 to ride as good as a car you know. I doubt that there is a sway bar on the rear axle either, which would help if it had one. I personally don't own an F-150 that is that new but, I have always used air shocks on my rear axle for my F-150 that tows a trailer. My trailer is a 7 X 12 and with my antique tractor on it the total weight is 7,000 lbs. I have never had any issues and usually run 30 to 50 psi in the air shocks when towing that load. Hooking to the bumper ball location also helps, instead of a ball/receiver hitch that is 10 inches farther back. If I had your truck, it would automatically get rear air shocks....problem solved. | |
