Stock Leaf Spring Recommendation
 
I'm needing to get some new leaf springs (stock height) for a 72 Blazer I just bought. Has anyone used General Spring out of Kansas City? They are close enough to me that I could save a bit on the shipping. But I was going to see if anyone had any experience with them good or bad. Thanks

General spring in Gardner Kansas has great springs. They also have all the bushings and hardware you need. I have bought several sets of stock springs from them.

Thanks Joe that's good to know. I really appreciate your feedback. So another question for you. Do you happen to have a recommendation on which of their springs to go with for a Blazer? There is a choice between 900lb and 1100lb fronts, and 1900lb and 2350lb for the rear. I called them and talked to someone about what would be best for me, but the guy I talked to wasn't really much help. I think I would prefer the lighter ones since I have no plans to haul or tow with it. Thanks again.

I went with Deaver Spring for mine and they are perfect. Rides better than stock, and stock height. They don't list them on their website, but they have them in stock.
