With needing to get new springs anyway, have you considered going to something longer for better performance? 56" Chevys seem popular with the 'Yota crowd.

What's a source or application on those? Any rear leaf-spring 1/2ton Chevy? I'm not against a rework of my rear spring hangers, but a direct replacement would save me some work (as I'm currently welder-less and would have to rely on others). Also, I do not want to gain anything more than an inch or so, and I suspect that a direct replacement would get me back to my desired height, seeing as the rears are so incredibly beat up. They're hosed. They look like a sine wave if you look down 'em.

I'd also like to try and avoid paying the cost of an upgraded spring, I guess. But something with more of a warranty might help offset that consideration. I heard from Steve G that Alcan's are all sorts of warranteed for life. Seeing as I'd mostly likely swap these out again in a couple of years, that'd help defer that future cost.
