Skyjacker makes springs for your truck. They aren't bad surprisingly.

thanks u had experience with them?

Yup I've installed a couple sets. They aren't the best offroad spring on the market but they aren't the worst and they fit the stock mounts.

Their actually really good offroad. Their very stiff when new and take long time to break in, but once they get soft their great springs. I have a set in the front of my truck that have been in for 7 or 8 yrs. I've whooped on them and have been nothing but pleased. Their expensive if I remember correctly

Yea once you stop running the kit shocks the springs are pretty decent once broken in. It took a long time for me to convince my buddy to change from the craptastic kit shocks when he bitched about the ride and performance. Bilstiens fixed it right up.

Yes the kit shocks were garbage, I swapped to Bilsteins it was a very noticeable change.

I've ran them in the front of my 1st gen for over 10 years and I think they work great.

The best stock replacement lift springs I ran were from NW Off Road in Bellingham.
They were smooth and flexed well.

The best thing about the SkyJackers is over the years I"ve broke three I think and every time they have replaced them for free.:awesomework:
