spent some money this weekend
I installed two new front springs, spring isolators and new shocks on the work truck this weekend. No more saggy front end.
Put on a new set of Michelin LTX A/S tires also.
Truck fixed, wallet broken.

how much lift did you get out of that? I was thinking about having my front, saggy, springs re-arched and adding a leaf.
