    No problem. :thumbsup:

    You might as well try them if you have the time. I'm guessing they will sag though.

    They said that the 5 packs will ride 20% harder, Im not looking for a rough ride. Anyone have any experience on how big the difference is (4 and 5)?

    Where did you get 20% from? I called and they told me about 10% firmer ride.

    I'm not sure who I spoke with at wheelers, but I'm pretty sure they said 10% firmer ride

    I have an email on my home machine from Wheelers (Dan actually I think), that says the 5-leaf are about 10-15% firmer.. which is absolutely fine by me, considering the stock springs are crap from the start. :D

    why stop at 20?

    :yay:

    EDIT - anyone know what "stock height" actually is on our trucks? I'm going to end up with about a 2" lift but since my suspension is so bad I'm pretty sure I'm lower than stock right now. Just trying to imagine what I'm gong to end up with once this is all done.

    ok guys im in a bit of a pickle and need help/advise.

    i Currently have a shackle lift on OEM sagging leaf springs. they measure 6-1/4 inches from center bolt to center bolt which i was told provides 2" of lift. is that right?


    [​IMG]

    now if i got these Wheelers leaf springs which ones should i go with?? i dont have the original shackles.....so should i get the 4-pack and use the shackle lift i have or buy the 5-pack and get original shackles??
