Ok, after all this spring talk, I called and talked to JR. Great group of guys there. Got a quote for V/C springs. He said they would add 1.1/2" of height. Not looking forward to this as I like my truck the height it is now. The 305's fill the wheel well and getting in is easy for all. If anyone out there has done this particular swap, can you give me feedback on height difference, pics maybe, and ride? Im sure I need new springs but would like some info so I can prepare for after. Thanks in advance.

What's the average cost for them? I guess it depends on shipping but it seems like no one mentions the price he gives them. I'm looking at the procomp springs or a set from ATS.

Feel free to give me a call or message. I'd be happy to give you an estimate!

SORRY, This is a worthless post. I thought the vendors were listed in that section They ain't
They are listed, I just checked.

You can search for a vendors name alphabetically too via the drop down menu.

Jr. Hooked me up with my Modded C's. I wish I had gone through him for my front V's. I had to add a 2" shackle to the front to equal off the truck after the fact. (my personal preference) Had I gone through Jr. For the front I would have saved a step and $! Shame on me for not doing the full research until after the fact. LOL After all is said and done I love the height and handling. The V's handle the 9'2" V Blade no problem!

Here's a pic of my set up. May not be the best angle to see the height. I'll try to get another for you if you want. (without the blade)

i just put V's on the front of mine and a set of 41-1263's on the rear I found new at a local spring shop this last Saturday along with new front powerstop rotors, hardware and pads. Took 2 of us 6.5 hrs total. I may mod and add a leaf to the rears however depending on how it all settles. Came up around 2" all around. It sat level with the V,s and stock rears, wasn't expecting that. I almost had second thoughts on pulling them out. Those stock rear springs however are ball busters.

After taking my rig for a ride to the ice rink, yeah, Im ordering today. As for the height, I'll be fine if the ride improves. It rides like a shopping cart with one bad wheel.

Edit: Ordered! Now to do the install.

Because I recently purchased V / C codes from ATS, towed my boat and finally figured out how to post photos, I had to send a response. I also worked with Jr., who was extremely helpful. He sent me the whole kit and I had my local mechanic install them. Before, it felt like the front tires were barely on the ground when towing the boat. Now my Ex is in control.

Does ATS sell rear B or C springs for the excursion that are bolt in ready, or do we still need to turn them in to the "modded" variety?
