On a side note, a few weeks ago I drove a 68 F250 that had 52" springs up front and that thing rode like a dream. No sway bar, no trac bar, just the springs and some good shocks. I will definitely be doing the 52" springs in the future.

I just finished my 63" / 52" swap and am still giddy about the way it rides. The front is fairly straightforward. The rear took a little figuring. It was worth it to me.
