Thanks Harry! Good ideas.

I didn't realize the OME springs were that reasonably priced. Is it best to buy them direct from ARB/OME or do any parts dealers carry them at discounted prices? I think $475 for all four springs is doable, will I need the longer rear shackle if I buy the OME rear springs?

Do they not come with bushings? When I've bought leafsprings for my older cars they always came with the bushings.

As for shocks, I used to run Rancho RS5000s on an '84 Nissan Kingcab 4x4 and it rode really nicely. One of my old girlfriends even commented that it rode real smooth for a truck. This was probably ten years ago, do you think they've changed the shocks in that time or is there something about the Nissan that would make the Rancho shocks a better choice for it? What about the Rancho RSX? They are the next step up from the RS5000 and still pretty reasonably priced.

How much do your Doetsch Techs run?

Thanks again!
