Well this is a timely thread for me. I need to install mine soon on my Ford F350 SRW.
I notice in the pics above that it looks like everyone is installing them as-is. The manual has an addendum in the front suggesting that it may be a good idea to cut a bit of them off, it looks like about 3/8" angling to more match the spring. Apparently this is to avoid a slapping noise. So does is it worth cutting them or is everyone just installing them as-is?
PS: there isn't a q in the name.
I have never notice a slapping noise. I farm and I'm on pot hole roads constantly. You will ride a little stiffer though when empty.
we just can't spell is all :)
