Hey Nick, where are you and are your springs flat or absent? Sometimes you can get them re-arched cheaper than a new set. Cold re-arch is best. Post pics in your Garage when you can.

someone has tried to lower it. they have taken two out of each of the front ones and one out of each of the rear. im wanting to find springs to lift it to stock height. so i would like to find some cheap dependable springs.

Definitely agree with Steve, sometimes having your springs re-arched will be cheaper than getting new ones, especially if you are looking to just get the vehicle back to stock height. If these are the original springs on the vehicle he may find himself in the same situation due to the age of the steel, the springs will most likely lose that added arch rather quickly.

Nick, are you looking for all four leaf springs? I think they are all 2-1/4" wide....
