    What are you really wanting? To return your truck to the new truck specks? Change the way your truck rides like to O/R. Why not spend your money on OME 883-884 the ride performs better.

    I already bought a set from a member originally just looking for the shocks only but ended up with the off road springs too.
    What is the ride difference?
    A explanation in nooby terms. Progressive, non-progressive.

    Toytech or old man Emu coils and bilstien (billies) shocks are affordable and will be a MUCH better ride than anything stock. It will give you enough lift to even out the front with the back. I wouldn't go to the trouble of swapping suspension, just to put on another stock setup.

    Thank you for all your replies.
    I already purchased the oem OR set up.
    Since the shocks are the same,
    What is the difference between the OR and the Sport springs?

    The sport springs are stiffer, as far as progression, not sure
