Leaf Springs
This is just a poll to see what springs everyone likes the most. I'm looking for a set of springs and I can't decide what to get!

I'm thinking about going with these.

Skyjackers ride pretty nice and fit great for the price. Can't wait to get my 4" Soft rides in the mail, I have 2.5" leveling springs on the front right now with no slippers in between leaves and it still rides pretty good!

DO NOT BUY FROM SDSPRINGS
They're going to flatten out in less than 9 months. My truck went from riding like a modern truck to now feeling every bang as my springs are now beginning to reverse arch just behind the front spring perch.
This, after I had them rearched, and leaf spring sliders installed between.
Now I'm looking around locally at the spring shops to see what they can offer.

If it were me I think I`d roll the dice on some of those parabolics. It`s a given the Alcans are quality stuff and Skyjackers are an improvment (what isn`t?) but something about the custom susp stuff intrigues me.

I would vote on this if I could afford to buy the alcans, skyjackers and try them to. Then I could make a resonable decision as to which ride is the best......... I rolled the dice. I decided to go to the dark side. Another reason for wishing someone else in this lonely little town had a 1st gen. I gotta stay neutral..........

Those springs look sweet.
Problem is that they're in Colorado, and I spent over $175 to have my $418 "internet" springs reworked. I wish I bought $600 worth of lottery tickets, as I wouldn't have felt the way I do now.... even if I lost every one.
Next purchase I'm going local, as I can kick someone's *** if the go bad in 9 months....

Well, since I purchased the springs from SDSPRINGS..... oh yeah, it stands for Suk Richard Springs they're reputation has taken a turn for the worse. I only wish that this "rating" had come up before I spent $420
