Woops. I meant the 4" lift springs for the 350. Will those match up or will i have to relocate shackels?

They should match up. I'm running F-superduty springs I. The front of mine and it sits about like a 4in lift.

Don't need sway bars, I'm not running them. Axle, springs, trac bar and mount.

The mount from the track bar to the frame. Yes all pre 99 F250 and 350s have the same bolt pattern
