Too bad its amazon. I would only run OME or Ironman for that price range.

I did a quick browse though Amazon and did see our OME springs sold by Synergy Mfg on Amazon....so you might be in luck
I didn't see the HD 790 front spring, but the 927 front and both 947/948s are listed

Ok I ordered the following OME 2790 and 2948 coil springs and a rear upper arm set of 4 new rotors and ceramic brake pads had to pay 50 additional bucks.

Now need to purchase struts and shocks ...? suggestions !

OME springs pair great with OME shocks.
Make sure you get the longer ones that are required even with a small lift.

Bilstein front and 5100's or Monroe 58649 Load Adjusting rear. Imo the Dakota 4600 bilstein everyone is runing in the rear are too soft for our rigs. I'm not very happy with mine, but I'm planning on the 5100's or load adjusting Monroe pretty soon.

Well, I guess I need to get off my butt and order some shocks and struts.

Monroe 58649 are $87 for a pair on prime. a couple reviews have warnings, looks like install requires some spring compression
to get then bolted in.

Not a big deal just something to note for others looking for upgrades. I will pull the trigger tomorrow on either Bilst or OME

I am a fan of Bilst have ran them in several vehicles.

As part of this upgrade I would think I need the upgraded A arms as well.

I will try and post lots of pics before during after ...
