    This here makes sense. Alot newer and less milage. Should give you some spring back in that booty.


    So what happened to the toolbox after the rack instalation? Did you have to take it off or did you manage to figure out a way to keep it?

    As far as I know all leaf springs are the same height across the board between all the trims and 2nd vs 3rd gen.

    3rd Gen leafs on a 2nd Gen? Same here! I just picked up a set of OR leafs for my 2005.

    I'm 99% sure that you are correct.

    Are the leaf springs all the same "spring rate?" 2nd vs 3rd gens, as well as OR vs Sport.

    I have never heard anything about them being different, so I would assume they are all the same.

    I have always heard the sport springs were stiffer, leaning towards the Sport designation. That could also just count for the front as well tho.

    I know the OR and Sport coils are different, and gen to gen they're different, but I can't find anything regarding the leafs.


    I hope it works, because I'm putting on a full 2nd Gen suspension with 3rd gen leafs.

    The fronts are stiffer, for sure. Sport coils are "linear," whereas the OR coils are "progressive." The Sport shocks are also tuned to be stiffer.

    I read over on @ChadsPride that the lair was recognized as a legitimate cult and had been takeb down by the methodists. Dude I laughted for 5 min straight because there may be so truth to this
