A 2006 with the 7.3L? They stopped putting the 7.3L PSD in the Superduty in 2003. I'm not sure if its different in Australia vs. North America.

in 05 ford went to a coil spring front end in the us. if you can get a part # off the leaf spring we could tell if the 04 and down design would work,or if its something completely different.

Okay i'll see what i can find.The f series was stopped here in 2006.Still popular and you won't believe the prices.
Search "carpoint" in Australia to check them out.

Put 05 USA spec. Excursion springs in the front and the block in the rear. Be about 2 inches lower.

ford used 2 different blocks, a 2 ", and a 3 1/2". you probably have the 2". remove the factory block and rest the springs right on the axle. new u-bolts will need to be used. if your going to tow airbags would be a good idea. the excursion front springs should lower the truck. new shocks all the way around wouldnt hurt either.

I would love to lower my 04 f250 4x4, it is to tall for my garage. I think 2 inches would let it in.

No we never got the 6 liter here.They last came into the country in 06 with the 7.3.They are so popular though.
Get on Carpoint in Australia and search f250.You will be shocked at the prices.
Hard to get Excursion springs over here.They were never released.
