    Ive heard Alcan is like $600 and you could also get TC UCAs or DSM UCAs which are cheaper than $780 I believe

    I wouldn't really pull over anyone for exhaust or tint UNLESS its a gang banger and or drug known places and I know im gonna make a bust. Racial profiling? No, he or she is just saying that because I caught them with rocks and a little powder.

    Dude I called alcan springs and they quoted me $900 for 6 inch springs not including shipping. I even told them yo, you quoted someone else a year ago $500 for a pair! His response was, as you know sir, prices go up.. And ill look into the UCA's. Do they have the rep that Icon has?

    Hello David As you know the price of everything goes up. We Build stock springs for your truck up to 4” of lift for $600.00 + bushings and shipping. The 8” lift spring has 11-1/2” of free arch and is another $150.00 per spring or $900.00 for the rear set. If you want to order you will have to go to our web site www.alcanspring.com and in there we have an order form fill it out and email it back to us and we will get the ball rolling on your new spring packs. Thanks for the pat on the back we try hard to build a good product and we stand behind our springs. Bill @ Alcan Spring

    WAIT A SECOND! That's when I thought you had to have 8 inch leaf spring in the back to raise it 8 inches!!!! When really you need 6 inch leaf springs to raise it a total 8 Inches in the back because of rake! RIGHT?

    HOW would they know if I had a straight pipe?? How would that gang banger know I had a straight pipe exhaust? Im not riding around through "his hood" for him to know that.

    This is getting way to confusing. I thought you were saying in court the gang banger would say he has a straight pipe so he's racial profiling. Never mind lets just end this haha its getting way to long.

    So I was wrong about alcan springs. They quoted me $900, shipping not included, for 8 inch leaf springs. That's when I thought I had to have 8 inch leafs to equal 8 inches of lift in the rear. Soooo im going to ask them again what a 6 inch leaf spring would be.. PROBABLY ALOT LOWER then $1000 that National Springs quoted me!
