Yeah, I know I need new springs.

Just don't have the money for it.
I'm trying to find a set of extremely cheap, or free stock springs with less miles and less sagging on them.

They are all sagging.
Since 7/28/09 all 4 springs have sagged about half an inch.

I have 98k right now so yeah, they are sagging.

I still have all my stock coils and shocks/struts you can buy for $100 plus shipping if you want. Had something like 60K when I put the lift on. Don't think they were sagging yet.

I'll just suck it up and save my money until I can get my lift. I'm only $400 away from my ome/rancho lift, or $200 if i go with the rysty's lift.

But thanks anyways.

For the price of Rusty's, GO BDS. You don't get struts, but the BDS coils will not sag like Rusty's. Rusty's is equivalent to stock springs, so they will be sagging. BDS spring ratings are that of OME. Definately a better choice than Rusty's IMO, of course it's just that... an opinion. People run every kind of lift, and there's always someone who loves it.

You must be doing some intense wheeling for a stock btw.

Murphyman, I do do some intense wheeling for it being stock. :D

Going over one of the railroad tracks we have here going about 60 dosen't help either. :shock:
I've gotten airborne a few time doing it at about 70mph. :D
