Expert Reply:

Not only do we sell full kits but we also sell replacement parts for almost all of the packages we offer. This will allow for our customers to fix/amend their current setup in addition to cases like yours where supplementary parts are needed to make sure certain kits are compatible with a certain vehicle.

Since the Firestone Ride-Rite Kit, # F2400, was designed specifically for the 2005-2007 Super Duty trucks, you will have to replace most of the components for it to work with your current vehicle. For example, you will need: 2 Firestone SD Upper Bracket part # F5572, 2 Replacement Lower Bracket part # F5380, 2 Replacement Saddle Bracket part # F5379, 2 Replacement Axle Strap Bracket part # F2135821163, and 1 Replacement Hardware Kit part # FA21-760-2550. The rest of the components needed to install i.e. (Bags, Fittings, and Lines) will already be included in your current package. This option will be considerably less expensive than replacing the whole kit with our Firestone Ride-Rite part # F2550.

I have attached an installation video of the Firestone system on a similar year Ford F-250 for your review. I hope this helps!
