Hi are your old rear springs stock? If they are , are they a A code or B code. I am looking for B code springs. Thanks

I'm not sure which type they are, I will know once they get pulled off. The fronts have been re-arched. And the rear has been used with a 4" block. I will definitely be letting the stuff go for very cheap once I get it off!

I changed my fronts and it was tricky for one person because of the weight, involved, haven't tackled the but should not be as hard.

The spring code is on the info sticker on the door jam. On the lower right hand corner it will say SPR and underneith it will have a two-character code, eg. VA or VB The first is for the front and the second is for the rear. I hope this helps.

Pic looks great , I found some B-code springs locally. I thought i would grab them as they are hard to comeby up here. Good luck with yours.

The FD just to the south of us has this truck. They already threw a track once and RIPPED apart a fender going through a ditch. Plus they can't use the truck on the road full of water bc it will void the track warrenty....

I have the pro comp 6.5 all spring kit in my truck...and i love it. It rides a little rougher than stock but that just helps you remember your driving a truck. I've driven a couple chevys with lifts and its as smooth as a honda civic, i want my truck to feel like a truck. Oh and i dont get any axle wrap either. I run 37" toyo's and i have the dp tuner too. The pro comp kit is pretty good. The front has sagged a little bit but not bad. You'll love it.
