Best place to buy Rancho 4" lift springs?
Want to replace the 4" Rancho springs on my K20...anybody know where to get the best deal? Am located in Ohio so shipping may or may not be of concern. Also, anybody try Tuff-Country? I'm running a big-block so I can't use the E-Z-Ride version, only the HD. Haven't had any experience with them. Any info is appreciated. Thanks, Gary

I've got the Tuff Country springs on my K20 and I am very pleased with them. Very recently Blazerman gave me his extra leafs that make them into the HD version. It's a bit rougher but probably perfect for you with the big block.
I bought mine from www.offroaddesign.com and they have excellent service. The only think I was unhappy with is that they were sent direct from the factory and were not matched as well as they should of been. One was a bit taller than the other when side by side. Putting it on the battery side of the truck probably would take care of that probelm - but I forgot to make sure I did that. ------------------ 1969 C20 4x4 with roughly 6" lift and 35's residing near Rose Hill, Kansas Yukon Jack's Web Pages

I have used several sets of tuff country and have never had a complaint. Had one sagged a little on the drivers side but that was after about 6 years of hard off roading and abuse. Think you can expect that from any spring. I would go with Tuff country again, but i would bet the HD spring.

I have built allot of 4x4's and used almost every major lift brand and I don't think that any of them are bad. Probably the best deal possible will be at a 4 x jamborie on the last day of the show. There is one in Lima Oh. coming up May 18. I am getting a shy jacker 6" while I am there. Then there is one in Cannfield Oh. in June or July.
