    Is this normal for a marker light? Just noticed it's burnt and had to pull it out.

    I think the re-arch and extra leaf in these deavers did the trick to fixing the sagging ass

    Did you just have a shop re arch them? I
    m wanting to do the same and have them add pads between each leaf since they're squeaky as frick dakars. I'll have them throw the 3rd leaf back in too for a stiffer weight with the tent

    Yup, went to a-1 spring in Oakland. They rearched mine and added a leaf. Pretty good job from what i can tell so far. Not sure about shops up closer to you

    How much that’d run you, if you don’t mind me asking?

    Cheaper than new?

    Original quote was $80-100 per pack for the rearch and $75 each pack for add a leaf.

    cheaper than a custom deaver pack ($800 or so).

    Sacramento spring should be able to help. I used to take springs there for log trucks and trailers. Always was good for that not sure on taco springs.

    Then there's Abshires blacksmith in Durham Almost to Chico. Steve is a great spring worker.
    Anderson just before Redding on the 5 is Thomasini blacksmith and welding. They kick ass on springs. They also will make new full packs if you want.

    My favorite color is red. The silver billys looked great on my rig. But kings perform. I was mashing down a back road the other day and i gotta say, love my kings
