Recommended Front Suspension Enhancement for 2014 Ford F-350 With 4-1/2 Inch Lift and Snow Plow
Question:
Hi! I am curious about the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs - Front Axle. I have a 2014 F-350 with a 4.5 lift and coil spring suspension in the front. I have installed a plow and would like to keep the front end up if possible. What are my options? I have always loved etrailer because you guys always know best! Thanks!

Assuming you have the factory coil springs your best option will be the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs # F4160. These are for the 4WD, if you have a 2WD then the # F4101 would be the correct part. These provide 1,000 lbs of load-leveling support by supporting your front coil springs. They will help to improve steering, braking, and headlight aim while reducing wear on your suspension.
If you do not have the factory coil springs, your only option will be the Timbren Front Suspension Enhancement System # TFF350SDC for 4WD or # TFF350SD2 for 2WD. You would also need to add the 1" # A25723-90AH00 and 1/2" # TA25722-90P00 spacers to accommodate the lift on your truck. You want to have 1/2"-1" of clearance between the bottom of the bump stops and the top of the contact point on the Timbren.
I have attached some review videos for your reference.
