I'm not familiar with the Windsport but I think it is on an F-series chassis.

That picture they sent you is a bit puzzling.

As I mentioned in my previous post I have installed Sumo Spings on an E-450 and the F-550 chassis (last month). In both cases the Sumo's were installed directly over the axle housing and on the side of the leaf springs opposite to the inside tire (so they were directly under the frame and directly over the axle housing).

Maybe the angle of the picture is misleading..... but the obstruction they are circling appears to be in front of the tire and the sway bar link and nowhere near where the Sumo Spring would be installed.

Now they do make Super Springs (helper springs), which do get installed on the leaf springs. I could see that metal bar they circled interfering with a Super Spring installation.

I attached that picture with an arrow showing where I think the Sumo Springs would be installed based on the two installations I have done.
