Highboy springs

I know there are many discussions on here on lifting the highboy with different springs but what about keeping it close to stock height, is there any springs i can go to a junk yard and look for or do i need to get them made? Got to get rid of the rear springs, i dont enjoy hitting my head on the roof every time i go over a bump lol. Thanks

The only set of springs that are going to maintain a highboys stock height are another set of highboy springs but good luck finding those in a junk yard and even if you did they would most likely be worn out and sagging (probably the very same reason you're replacing yours) so if you're looking to maintain the original stock ride height having a set made is pretty much your only option.
