Severe duty coil springs

How hard are they to install and how much more ride height do they give you?

I have them, and they are great IMO. They are not that hard to install. There is an article somewhere here on the site that tells how to do the install. I just followed that, and had no problems. If my memory is correct they give about 2" above the stock ride. Hope this helps, Tony

I need to qualify one thing. The stock springs new are 13.?? inches in height. The severe duty are 15.?? in height. This is before they are installed.

Good luck, Tony

I went to napa....their on line website, and looked them up. I forget right now the PN, and the price. They will tell you on the site the height of each paticular set of springs you're looking at.

Good luck, Tony
