Stock Leaf Springs
Who are some of the good leaf spring supplier out there for factory replacement springs? I'm familiar with General Spring, SD Spring, Alcan Spring and Denver Spring. Are there other sources for stock height leaf springs?

Re: Stock Leaf Springs
I bought a set of new front 3/4 ton leaf springs from The Suspension King. I don't know who the manufacturer is of the springs but they are great quality.

Re: Stock Leaf Springs
Most decent sized cities have a truck spring works. I have the choice of 4 or more within an hour from me. The place I deal with is family owned and has been in business since 1945. They do excellent work, anything truck chassis related...anything! And I bet no one has ever heard of them. I figure there are hundreds just like them across the nation.

Re: Stock Leaf Springs
Not sure if you have a Bett's Spring in your area. They deal mainly in big truck springs but I have been able to have them re work springs and bend U bolts while I wait. Might look at big truck suppliers (18 wheeler stuff).
