Default 97 F250 7.3 powerstroke front end, Questions

I got a 97 f250 7.3 2wheel drive and the front end sits lower then the back because of the heavy motor, Is it possible too get the front end level with the back for good looks and possible better driving????


Also my steering has been shaking sometime going slow or fast or in a curve as well, I put a better steering shaft in and the bumping is gone now, but now driving down the road is like i'm driving drunk and only drinking ice tea, It goes left too right and the steering wheel u can feel a wobble every now and then But i had someone tell me too change the tie rods and end out, What u guys think of theses matter"s ,,,, Thanks God Bless

IIRC the fronts on those trucks are a twin I beam with coil springs... Coil spacers would be your best bet.


Sounds like you need to rebuild the entire front end...

https://www.dieselbombers.com/tire-w...questions.html check this post out and see if there is something on there to help you with your leveling kit issues and as far as steering problems jack up the front end and see how much play you have in the steering box and movement in the balljoints
