Question:

Hi , we are wanting to level our boat that’s on a tráiler and 2003 Ford F 250 Crew cab with 8’ Bed and 4 wheel drive. At the back of the trailer it measures 25” From the bottom of the trailer frame to level ground and in the front Tongue bottom of the frame it measures 19”. The weight on the back suspension appears to lift the front ? Meaning more weight in the back. Do you reccomend air bags , suspension reinforcement,springs hard poly springs labor blocks shaped like a donut. The less maintenance the better.

Since you want something with as little maintenance as possible for your 2003 Ford F250 4WD, use helper springs. This will help with the sag you are getting to keep you level, and I recommend Timbrens:

- Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TFR250SDE

These do not require any maintenance at all; once installed you never have to worry about them, they'll simply do the job they are designed to do. Timbrens take the brunt of that added weight, engaging when needed to counteract sag and body roll, helping level your truck, stabilize it, and combat sway.
