nah not the coils or leafs. if you replace the coils with like after market ones, you might get some that are real spungy or too stiff
springs and leafs will be fine just do the kit with new shocks... the shocks have a shorter stroke on them so that they dont bottom out...
i need to put new leafs on my truck it has over 250k miles on them and the truck leans a little bit from all the weight of the tank being on the left side all the time...
yeah my truck needs all new suspension. i think ill be looking at replacing all components soon.
haha uh oh you getting the squeaks? My back end is getting squeaky, but nothing a little grease wont fixQuote:

That's called the dough boy sits on the left side all the time while driving. Ha! trying to blame it on the gas tank:DQuote:

I have yet to see a C1500 that doesn't lean to the left. Is that a political statement?Quote:
