the re-arch will only last so long, they will begin to sag some after some time.

i would go to u-pull-it and get a pair of springs from a F150. then mix and match the 2 packs to gain what you are after. if you go with 250 or 350 springs you will just get a harsher ride

I had a set of springs rearched and wouldn't recommend it. The ride is bad and the savings isn't much

how many times and on how many different forums are you going to ask this exact question before you realize that NO is the correct answer?

Maybe he's just looking for someone to say ok, do it.

So on that note, It's not worth the effort, but if you want to waste your hard earned money, then that is your right. So go out and do it already!!!!
