Smokey,

I took my front leaf springs to Pruitt on Canal St. and they re-arched them to GM specs.

Thanks!

Hi Smokey,
When I bought one of my trucks it had bolt-on coils on the rear.  I figured=
 it was for possible overloads and left them on.  They didn=E2=80=99t touch=
 the frame unless it was heavily loaded.

I=E2=80=99m not aware of anything else.  Have you seen something different?
