    Like many of us I am in desperate need of new leafs! Currently I have eibach coils with bilstein 5100's in the front, and 5100's and Wheeler's Drop shackle in the rear. Time for new leafs now and I am having difficulty finding OEM ride height leaf springs, seems like all companies only make lifted ones.

    Any suggestions on some stock ride height leaf springs that won't break the bank? Thanks in advance!

    I just put on their standard (not heavy duty) leaf springs for my truck a couple months ago. They ride well overall and were much less expensive than many other companies. Great customer service too! I was going to go with Wheeler's (4-leaf is stock height) but after reading hours of reviews on here their quality seemed to suffer after the first year or so - people liked them at first and then they started to sag a bunch.

    I put on the HD General Springs rear leafs with 5100s up front on the first notch up, and they lifted the rear a *lot*. Like several inches. So much that the brake line was stretched super tight to install. So high it looks goofy (until I get some *real* tires on it). Now, with a load of firewood in the back, it looks real nice...
    FYI, YMMV, etc.
    This was on a 2000 Ext Cab.
