Springs and Shocks - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My 71 seems a to be softer in the suspension than I would expect but the ride height is pretty close to stock. I am wondering if coil springs can become soft and retain their ride height???

I just ordered a new set of KYB MonoTube shocks and will try them first to see if they will help firm up the ride.

I decided on KYB for a couple of reasons. They are our (CARQUEST) supplier and I know the quality is second to none. I am hoping the high pressure gas shock will help my ride.
