Okay, so I'm looking to get new leaf springs for my 99 2wd ext cab. I've looked on the door and the spring code is CK. I was wondering if anyone could explain what that meant and if the code applied to leaf springs and front coils or only the leaf springs. If it helps, the springs I have now, have the top leaf that connect to the shackles, a middle leaf and a bottom shorter leaf. I'm assuming thats the 2/1 style?? Any feedback would be much appreciated

 

it does , but you need to find out the proper spring rate for your needs


Replacement Leaf Springs for the 1998 Ford Ranger - TruckSpring.com

 

That spring code means you have the softest coils up front and the middle of the road leaf packs. (There were three leaf packs offered)

 

So if I got a 4 pack leaf instead of a 3 would it be okay? I figure it'll probably be a little stiffer ride but it'll give me more carrying capacity. Correct?

 

Yes, it will be fine.

Ride might be a little stiffer ( these trucks don't ride the best to begin with, so you probably won't even notice) and yes it will handle weight a little better.

 

Thanks for all the help guys!
