Question:
I have a 2008 F-250 4x4 with a 4inch lift and a BandW Gooseneck Hitch. Will this product work with my lift?

Expert Reply:
The correct rear axle Timbren Jounce Spring kit for your 2008 Ford F-250 4X4 is part # TFR250SDF. The kit # TFR350SDF you referenced fits the F-350. Any suspension kit can potentially have interference with either a 5th wheel or goose neck hitch if the two items require the same mounting points on the truck's frame. You can use the Timbren installation instructions I have linked to see where these jounce springs attach (in place of the factory bump stops) and compare that to your hitch installation to see if both can fit together.
If your truck has a 4-inch suspension lift you will need to add four per side of Timbren's 1-inch spacer # A25723-90AH00. These do not include hardware so you'll need to locally source longer bolts to reach through the springs and spacers. If you truck has a body lift no spacers are needed.
