    There is a better option if you have Amazon prime. Order the Dakar (OME) cs019r leaf springs and bushings through one of the resellers and shipping is free.......

    Actually don't even need Amazon prime. Leaf springs are sold individually ($156.37 each) and free shipping.
    The bushing kit is OMESB43. $32.95

    I currently have 30 x 9.5 15's on it w/ no suspension or body mods. I'm about to get a set of Outlaw's ( around 12.5 x 15 x 10 ) . My goal is to put 33's on it. Does anyone know if i will have to mod the suspension or body before putting these on?

    I've got a set of US Springs under mine. American made and a decent price. Mine are 3" lift springs with an extra 500lb capacity but you can get stock stiffness if you want.

    Do you mean the dorman springs on Amazon? I checked out toytec and I thought they were kinda spendy comparatively. Have you guys tried the 1a auto site? I seen a set of springs on there for pretty cheap

    Type CS019R on Amazon. You will see the springs. I have them on my truck. Easy 3" lift, no blocks

    Haha it'd be awesome, but not worth the money it would cost me. The return isn't there for the price, my truck is powerful enough after the regear

    Has anyone created inner fender wells for their fiberglass fenders... I don't want them filling up with snow this winter... Let alone the salt from Minnesota roads getting thrown up in there
